the handlebars and turn them until
your hands rest in a relaxed position
on the brake/gearshift grip unit.
• Before you fix the handlebars in the
selected position, make sure that the
handlebars are precisely centred in the
stem. Tighten the handlebar fixing
screws and make sure that they are
tightened in such a way that the gap
is identical at the top and bottom. Use
a torque wrench. The torque required
is 6-8 Nm.
• To complete the adjustment, tighten
the stem screws with a torque of 10-
12 Nm.
• Check that the handlebar grips are
firmly fixed. Your Mercedes- Benz Bike
has special, ergonomically formed
grips that are fixed with an hex screw.
Turn the grips to the desired position
and tighten the screws with a 5 mm
Allen torque wrench with a torque of 4
Nm.
• If you should find that the chosen stem
angle or the position of the handlebars
and grips is not ideal during a first
ride, repeat the above sequence.
Falls or accidents
Please note that handlebars and stems are
essential parts of bicycle construction. Any
modifications to these parts may endan-
ger your safety. Be sure to use the correct
torque when tightening screws. The wrong
torque could result in parts working loose
or breaking during a ride. This can lead to
serious accidents.
