The handle‐bar and stem are used to steer the bike. The handle‐stem connects to the fork. Some stems can
be adjusted in height to provide a comfortable riding position.
SuperT: Straightening and folding the handle‐stem: The stem is folded to the right side of
bike. Un‐fold it and secure it using quick‐release levers. Bolts should be tightened to 9‐10 Nm unless specified otherwise.
Make sure all bolts are tight and that there is no excess play in the stem. The stem sits at an angle to the bike frame, about
45 degrees. This is normal and will allow the handle‐bar to be folded in a parallel way to the bike.
To align stem with wheel, walk to front of bike, put wheel between your legs, open
quick release lever and centre stem (Figure FS2). Only minor adjustments can be
made using the quick‐release lever (Firgure FS1). If major centering adjustments
are needed, release steerer‐clamp bolts (Figure FS1) by a few turns, centrestem,
then tighten bolts to 18‐20 Nm.
CAUTION!: The folding stem should fold to the right side of the bike. The handle‐
bar should be approximately parallel to the bike frame when fully folded. Fold
carefully.Takecarenottodamagethebikeduringthefoldingprocedure.Make
sure to leave enough slack for all wires to avoid damaging wires while folding.
CAUTION!: Pinching hazard. Keep clear of moving parts.
