3. Determine the type of parts to be assembled to the handlebar:

Following are the various combination of parts that you may have to assemble. Determine which
parts are most like what you have and assemble as shown. You may not have some of the parts but
assemble the parts you have in the order as shown. You may have to move the handlebar to each
side to install some parts.

- Make sure the brake lever to the rear brake is mounted on the right side of the handlebar

- Make sure the shifter to the rear derailleur is mounted on the right side of the handlebar

- Install grips using a mixture of five drops of liquid soap in a cup of water

WARNING:

Use only soap and water to install the grips. The grips may slip while wet.

Allow the grips to completely dry before riding the bicycle.

- Wet the handlebar and the inside of each grip [1] with the soap mixture

- Using a twisting motion, push each grip fully on the handlebar

- If you have bar ends, make sure they are fully on the handlebar

- If the grips are open on both ends, push a plastic plug [11] into each end of the handlebar
(you may need a rubber mallet for this).

NOTE- If your bicycle came with two sets of handlebar end plugs, discard the larger plugs that
are packaged with the handlebar ends. The other set will fit correctly

4. Tighten the stem bolt and the handlebar clamp:

WARNING:

Do not overtighten the stem bolt. Overtightening the stem bolt can damage

the steering system and cause loss of control.

- Make sure the stem is aligned with the front wheel and tighten the stem bolt

- Put the handlebar in a comfortable position for the rider
