You left out a critical final step: Torque the bolts to proper spec. This a especially critical for carbon bars. Most people overtighten these bolts which can weaken the stem/bar interface and create an unsafe condition.

Thanks for this video! I've been trying to put together my new bike and I got stuck at the handlebar part.

now do you actually use grease or anti seize compound? since I assume they are steel bolts into an aluminum stem. new bars are on the list of wants on my bike.

What if handle bar is too small for stem? can I make it bigger
@performancebike6 жыл бұрын
we do not recommend shimming a handle bar. if your bar is to small for the stem you will enter need to get a new stem or new bar.

Why would you use grease? Sorry, just a beginner learning things :D

Grease is used to prevent parts from seizing up, making noise and it helps get bolts to correct torque spec.
