If the brake and shift cables are now
too short, ask your dealer for help.
Do not tighten the handlebar bolts
excessively (steps 10 and 12), as the
material could get damaged. Maximum
torque is written on the stem.
Changing the handlebar height by
cutting the fork tube is complex and
irreversible, and must be done by an
expert.
You can also change the height by
removing spacers and placing them
either above or below the stem.
(Useful when you need to test the
optimum position before cutting the
fork tube.)
