Some Levo models are equipped with an Alloy Trail Stem.
WARNING! The stem is designed with no gap between the stem body and the faceplate at the upper bolt area. The upper bolts
must be tightened such that the faceplate bottoms out against the stem body before being torqued. Failure to bottom out the
faceplate against the stem body can result in structural damage to the handlebar.
 Install the stem on the steerer tube, followed by the top cap and bolt (A), then tighten the top cap bolt.
 Align the stem with the front wheel and torque the rear stem bolts (A) to specification.
 Loosely thread the stem bolts through the faceplate and into the stem body.
 1: Position the handlebar in the desired position and gradually torque the upper bolts (B1) to specification alternating from the left to right the
right bolt, so as to evenly increase the torque until the specification is reached.
 2: Gradually torque the lower bolts (B2), alternating from the left to the right bolt, so as to evenly increase the torque until the specification is
reached.
 Check that the handlebar is installed correctly by rotating the handlebars up and down, then twisting the handlebar side to side while holding
the front wheel. If there is any movement, the stem is not sufficiently tightened and should be re-torqued.
