Yo,
STW massive, I know you're meant to remove and fit the bolts in a certain order, but I can't remember which!
Can anyone help?
Cheers
Would it be like most stems where you turn each screw a turn then the opposite and so forth.
It's a bit different as the stem is split in two.
From memory either the top or bottom bolts are tightened, then the other, I just can't remember which way!! But there is a specific order in which to do it.
I did have the instructions but can't seem to find them.
You're welcome 😉

Basically, bottom ones first, then top ones, all to 5nm.
Bottom loosely, put stem on steerer, torque bottom screws, preload headset, torque steerer screws then torque top screws.
All 5n/m.
Thanks all!
Are reassembling to try and rid the annoying creak that develops?
Im bored of regreasing mine..
My forks are in for service and I've not cleaned/greased the bolts in nearly 18 months!
There is a creak, but only a small one under heavy loads so it's not really bothered me, but whilst the bike is in bits it makes sense to give it a once over.
Having been going insane with a clicking/creaking front end on my bike everytime I put power down to pedal I am convinced it is from this stem. There seems to be no other explanation. Glad I'm not the only one.
