3. Handlebar Height

It is recommended you try various handlebar heights to find the most suitable position

for you. Usually it is most comfortable when the handlebar height is the same as the

height of the seat. The handlebar stems of some bikes can be altered to customize

fit even further.

Caution:

Ensure the handlebar’s stem does not extend beyond the minimum

insertion mark. (Refer to Part 5 on how to adjust Handlebars).

WARNING:

The steering action may be compromised if the stem binder bolt, the

handlebar binder bolt or the bar end extension clamping bolts are not

sufficiently tightened. This could result in the rider losing control and falling.

To check, try to twist the handlebar/stem assembly whilst the front wheel

of the bike is positioned between your legs. If the stem twists in relation

to the front wheel, the handlebars turn relative to the stem, or the bar end

extension rotates in relation to the handlebar, the bolts need

to be tightened.
