CHAPTER 1: FORK / STEM / HANDLEBAR INSTALLATION

1.1 INSTALLING THE FORK INTO THE STEERER TUBE

Specialized Shiv frames are designed in conjunction with the Specialized aero stem/handlebar combo or a 1 1/8” x 31.8mm standard stem with the Specialized alloy aero handlebar. The Specialized aero handlebars work speciﬁcally with the handlebar risers and extensions to offer the greatest range of position adjustment.

When using a Specialized aero stem or a Specialized Multi-Position 1 1/8 x 31.8mm stem, Specialized strongly recommends following the speciﬁc instructions below to guarantee the best build possible.

TECH TIP:

Before starting the assembly of the bike, install the seatpost in the frame as shown in Chapter 5.

WARNING! When placing the bicycle in a repair stand, clamp the seatpost using a frame clamp speciﬁcally designed for thin-wall carbon tubes (for example, the Park Tools 100-X4 Extreme Range Clamp). Clamping the seatpost with a standard clamp can cause damage to the seatpost that may or may not be visible. Do not clamp the frame tubes.

TECH TIP: position for assembly (2 x 25mm steerer tube spacers), then cut the fork to the desired height once the build is complete and the bike has been ﬁt to the rider.

1. Install the lower 1 1/8” cartridge bearing A on the steerer tube of the fork.

2. Install the fork B into the head tube C of the Shiv frame and settle the bearing into the base of the head tube.

3. Install the upper 1 1/8” cartridge bearing D on the steerer tube of the fork and settle the bearing into the top of the head tube.

4. Install the bearing compression ring E over the bearing.

5. Install the top cap F over the compression ring.

6. Install 2 x 25mm head tube spacers G onto the steerer tube.

7. Install the stem H that will be used to build the bike onto the steerer tube. This is important to make sure the steerer tube is cut to the correct length.

8. Mark the steerer tube directly above the stem, then remove the fork from the steerer tube. Make a 2nd mark 2mm below the original mark.

9. Place a steerer tube cutting guide tool on the steerer tube, with the guide slot aligned with the 2nd mark. Double-check the measurement, so that the mark is 2mm below the top of the stem with 2x25mm spacers installed below the stem.

10. Cut the steerer tube (using a carbon cutting blade, or a blade with a minimum 36 teeth) at the cut mark, remove the tool, then remove any burrs from

the top of the steerer using a ﬁne grit sandpaper.

11. Repeat steps 1 through 7.

For the initial setup, since the proper height is not yet determined, it is recommended to cut the steerer tube at the highest

1.2 INSTALLING THE CARBON AERO HANDLEBAR ON THE AERO STEM

90mm

60mm

SPECIALIZED AERO STEM:

12. Determine the desired stem length (60 or 90mm) and install the carbon aero handlebar I along with the handlebar position wedge J.

TECH TIP: to 90mm position will require that the cable housings be replaced with longer ones to accommodate the additional stem length. It’s easier to trim cable housings to a shorter length if adjusting from the 90mm to the 60mm position.

If the stem length is not yet determined, it’s recommended to start at the 90mm position. Changing the stem from the 60mm

13. Install the stem’s upper section K and four bolts L (M6x32mm, 4mm countersunk Allen hex head).

14. Alternate the torque to the stem bolts in 5 in-lbf (0.6 N*m) increments, up to a ﬁnal torque setting of 80 in-lbf (9.0 N*m), to ensure an even load

distribution to the handlebar.

1.3 INSTALLING THE ALLOY HANDLEBAR WITH A STANDARD 31.8MM STEM

STANDARD 31.8MM STEM:

15. Determine the desired stem M length and angle, then place the Specialized aero handlebar N into the stem.

16. Orient the handlebar position horizontally, then torque the stem faceplate bolts to the manufacturer’s speciﬁcations.

1.4 INSTALLING THE EXPANDER PLUG AND TOP CAP

17. Install the Specialized 48mm Long Expander Plug O into the steerer tube, then torque to 80 in-lbf (9.0 N*m).

18. Install the preload top cap P, followed by the bolt with washer Q, then preload the headset bearings to remove any play.

19. Torque the stem bolts to the manufacturer’s speciﬁcations.

2.2 INSTALLING THE CLAMPS, EXTENSIONS AND ARM PADS

5. Place the extension clamps E on top of the extension caps, with the concave surface in contact with the convex surface of the extension caps and the clamps facing each other.

6. Install 2 x extension clamp bolts F (M6 x20mm length, 5mm standard Allen hex head) and washers through the extension clamps and into the extension cap nuts. Applying the torque speciﬁcation is not necessary until the bike has been ﬁt to the rider.

7. Place the two arm pad holder clamps G in position. The pad holder clamps can go either in front of, between or behind the extension clamps.

Page 10 of 25

Page 13

8. Install the handlebar extensions H through the extension clamps and the pad holder clamps. The extensions have the option of being switched to either side, for a wider or narrower hand position. They can also be rotated inward or outward to ﬁne-tune the angle of the hand position (see P.13).

9. Install the arm pad holders I on the pad holder clamps with 2 x pad holder bolts and washers J (M6x10mm length, 4mm Allen hex round head bolts). The pad holders have three lateral and three fore-aft position options.

10. Once the ﬁt is determined, torque the extension clamp, pad holder clamp and pad holder bolts to speciﬁcations, as illustrated in the images in section 2.2.

11. Place the foam pads on the pad holders.

9. Adjust the seatpost to the desired height for proper leg extension.

10. Alternate the torque to the seat collar bolts, in 5 in-lbf (0.6 N*m) increments, up to a ﬁnal torque setting of 45 in-lbf (5.1 N*m) to ensure an even load

distribution to the seatpost. Once complete, the gap between the frame and the seat collar should be equal on both sides.

WARNING! The Shiv is equipped with a minimum insertion sight hole (see ﬁgure above). This is the minimum insertion required for the seatpost and frame to remain structurally safe. All frame sizes require a minimum post insertion of 75mm; the seatpost MUST be visible through the sight hole.

TECH TIP: The application of carbon assembly compound (ﬁber paste) can increase friction between carbon surfaces. Please visit your Specialized Authorized Dealer for additional information.
