Proper installation is crucial for safety and performance. This stem extension is compatible with 1 1/8 inch Ahead forks.

1. Prepare your bicycle: Ensure your bicycle is stable, preferably in a work stand. Remove the existing stem and handlebars from the fork steerer tube.
2. Insert the extension: Slide the CONTEC Stem Extension onto the fork steerer tube. Ensure the "MIN. insertion mark hole" on the extension is fully covered by the steerer tube. This mark indicates the minimum safe insertion depth.
3. Adjust height with spacers: The extension comes with four 5mm spacers. Place these spacers above or below the stem extension on the steerer tube to achieve your desired handlebar height. Experiment with different configurations to find the most comfortable position.
4. Install the top cap and bolt: Place the original top cap and bolt onto the stem extension. Tighten the top cap bolt to remove play from the headset bearings, but do not overtighten at this stage.
5. Attach handlebars: Reattach your handlebars to the stem extension. Ensure they are centered and aligned correctly.
6. അന്തിമ കർശനമാക്കൽ: തണ്ട് cl മുറുക്കുകamp bolts on the extension to secure the handlebars. The recommended torque for these bolts is 13-15 എൻഎം. Use a torque wrench for accurate tightening to prevent damage or slippage.
7. അലൈൻമെന്റ് പരിശോധിക്കുക: Ensure the handlebars are perfectly aligned with the front wheel. Once aligned, fully tighten the top cap bolt to the manufacturer's recommended torque for your headset.

Operating the Heads-Up Spin Function

The CONTEC Heads-Up Spin features an innovative tool-free rotation mechanism for convenient storage and transport.

1. Engage the spin mechanism: Locate the quick-release or locking mechanism on the stem extension, typically near the top cap.
2. Rotate handlebars: Once the mechanism is disengaged, you can rotate the handlebars 90 degrees to align them parallel with the bicycle frame. This significantly reduces the bike's width for storage or transport.
3. Secure the position: After rotating, re-engage the locking mechanism to secure the handlebars in the new position. Ensure it is fully locked before moving or transporting the bicycle.
4. Return to riding position: To return the handlebars to the riding position, disengage the mechanism, rotate the handlebars back to their forward-facing position, and re-engage the lock. Always ensure the handlebars are securely locked before riding.

Note: The packaging image shows "Two triangles must be pointed together" which likely refers to an alignment mark for the spin function. Always ensure these marks are aligned for proper engagement.
