TO TEST THE TIGHTNESS OF THE STEM:
• Straddle the front wheel between your legs.
• Try to turn the front wheel by turning the handlebar

.
• If the handlebar and stem turn without turning the front
wheel, realign the stem with the wheel and tighten the
stem bolt(s) tighter than before (about 1/2 revolution
only at a time) until the handlebar and stem do not turn
without turning the front wheel.
TO TEST THE TIGHTNESS OF THE HANDLEBAR CLAMP:
• Hold the bicycle stationary and try to move the ends of
the handlebar up and down

.
CAUTION: Do not exceed 100 lbs (45 kg) downward force.
• If the handlebar moves, loosen the bolt(s) of the handlebar clamp.

clamp tighter than before.
• If the handlebar clamp has more than one bolt, tighten the bolts equally.
• Do this test again, until the handlebar does not move in the handlebar clamp.
