 Loosely thread the faceplate bolts (A1) + (A2) and washers through the faceplate and into the stem body.
 Rotate the handlebar to the desired position.
 Gradually torque the upper faceplate bolts (A1) to specification, alternating from the left to right bolt to evenly
increase the torque until the specification is reached.
 Gradually torque the lower faceplate bolts (A2) alternating from the left to right bolt to evenly increase the torque
until the specification is reached.
 With the bike on the ground, pull the front brake and rock the bike back and forth to ensure the headset is fully
seated and that there is no looseness in the system.
 Complete all cabling according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
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.
For additional information about stem installation, please refer to the Specialized Bicycle Owner’s Manual,
available at www.specialized.com.
You should not be able to rotate the stem spacers by hand if the system is sufficiently tightened.
