Assembly Of The Handlebars Using The Handlebar Shim - SQlab LENKER 3OX Mode D'emploi

Assembly of the handlebars using the handlebar shim

The SQlab aluminum handlebars and SQlab carbon handlebars (except SQlab 3OX Trial Fabio Wibmer) are compatible with the SQlab
handlebar shim alloy 31.8 mm to 35.0 mm. With the help of this special handlebar sleeve, the SQlab ALU and SQlab Carbon handlebars
can be mounted in all aluminum stems with a handlebar clamp diameter of 35.0 mm in combination with 2­ and 4­bolt clamps.
The clamp width of the stem must not be less than 46 mm and not exceed 54 mm.
The assembly is similar to the first step, the assembly in conventional 31.8 mm stems. In the first step of assembly, the two halves of the
handlebar sleeve must be placed centrally on the handlebar. Fix them now with the help of the enclosed O­ring. Please note that the
O-ring must be pushed onto the handlebar before the other parts are mounted. Now continue with the assembly of the handlebar (p.8).
From the manufacturer's point of view, we advise that handlebar­stem combinations should always be used with the same clamping
diameter. Due to the lower stability of handlebars with 35.0 mm diameter as well as a frequently too high stiffness, the advantages of
handlebars with a clamping diameter of 31.8 mm clearly prevail.

Warning
The use of the SQlab handlebar shim alloy 31.8 mm to
35.0 mm reduces the ASTM release of all handlebars that
are used in combination with this sleeve.
The combination of handlebar and handlebar sleeve has
a release according to:
Category 2 ASTM F2043 - 13/ DIN EN 17406
Note
The use of the SQlab handlebar shim alloy 31.8 mm to
35.0 mm reduces the durability of the handlebar which is
used in conjunction with this.
With a clamping diameter of 35.0 mm, the strength
is lower than with a clamping diameter of 31.8 mm.
The use of a stem with a clamping diameter of 31.8
mm in combination with a handlebar with clamping
diameter of 31.8 mm is strongly recommended here.
This combination ensures ideal interaction of the compo­
nents in terms of function and maximum durability.
