Important! Do not disassemble the headset or lose any parts.
Be sure the end of the fork is on the ground or being held with
your free hand, because once you loosen the top cap the fork
assembly may fall out of the frame.
❶ Turn the front fork to face forward (i.e. the fork dropout is
in the furthest forward posion). Figure 3.13
❷ Using a 5 mm Allen wrench loosen the top cap bolt on the
steerer tube and remove the top cap and bolt. Important!
Do not remove the spacers. Figure 3.14
❸ While holding the fork assembly in place, use a 6 mm Allen
wrench and loosen the stem pinch bolts. Slide the stem
down onto the steerer tube. Figure 3.15
❹ There should be 1/4" space from the top of the steerer tube
to the top of the stem opening. If you have more than 1/4"
space, remove one or more of the headset spacers.
