Where is the stem riser installed? In place of the headset? I think the stem on the Zike is the part with the faceplate clamped around the handlebars.

The stem riser is installed in the spot where the handle bars connect to the bike frame. It's very simple to do. Pop the cap off the top of the center bar between the handle bars, unscrew the center screw holding it in place, loosen the clamp securing the bars in position, remove bars. Insert the riser, replace the handle bars, screw down into the riser, then tighten the clamp being sure you've lined up the bars properly. Honestly, realigning the bars was the hardest part for me cause I was working by myself.

I had padded grips on my handlebars, so it was just easier to remove them first and replace them after installing the handlebars into the stem. I had to cut the grips to get them off, but I just rapped them with athletic tape after putting them back on.

Is the chain off the sprocket? Is it your first time riding the zike. I thought mine was jamming up, but I found out my muscles were not used to a stairstepper motion ,so it was my leg muscles that needed fixing not the zike, now I can peddle 45 minutes at a time .You have to change gears 1 gear at a time. You cannot go from 1 to 6 all at once.I once had the chain come off the sprocket. I got it back on by rolling the bike backward, it was the only way. It would not go on rolling it forward. Not happy with the gear shifter. I shift from 4 to 5 and it goes to 6. Hard to get it in 7th. I love the zike. I have 2 other bikes , a GT and a nishiki, and I only ride the Zike.

It's on the end. One end comes apart so you can insert it in a USB port (in your car or computer) and the other has a hole for the headset. Hope this helps.

Agree with Jeff, The derrailleur / shifter cable was included but no brake cable or housings. New product packaging may have changed since then as it 's been awhile. I 'd plan on having the brake pieces available if your doing the installation yourself. If not, Your local bike shop will sort it out for you. Hope that helps. Mike

It comes with a mount that can either be mounted on the handlebars or on the headset. Easily installed and removed. No tools required. No obstruction while riding and easily visible.

There are two kinds of front fork/handlebar systems. (1) The old style pre-2000 or so, where you loosened up a long bolt on top, and then, could slide the bars up and down about 3 inches. It was an expanding bolt inside the front fork. (2) The newer style where there is a handlebar mount that clamps onto the outside of a fixed length front fork. These do not have that adjustment. The Montague Paratrooper I bought has this newer type, so no adjustment - to my knowledge. The only way to raise the handlebars is to get a different "clamp" that holds the handlebars to the front fork, that has some lift in it. There are even some that are adjustable. This would be a second purchase after the bicycle.

The topside of the crossover pipe on the left side of the bike, below the drive belt (when pipe is mounted) is flattened to allow room for the drive belt. Otherwise it is round. I hope that answers your question. PS: I have these true duals and turndown slip-ons on my 2012 CVO Streetglide...sound great!!!

Hi, I think you are asking for assistance regarding inserting the stem into the head tube. If so, I too notice a little difficulty in doing so. Grease is the word. Place a good film of grease on the stem, be sure you have the binder bolt kinda loose as to not bind upon insertion. Gently insert your well greased stem into the head tube using SLIGHT right to left rotation motion. NOT TOO MUCH, you will mare the stem's finish. Then tighten the allen bolt, you should have success. When in doubt, look things up on you tube...someone will have undoubtedly posted a video on the subject. Hope that helped.

It is an Andros stem, which offers several adjustments. There are two levers that unlatch, allowing the handlebars to be rotated toward or away from the rider, as well as turned. Check the web for photos to see how it works.

The particular avenir MTB handlebar I bought has a 100mm rise, and there is nearly 180mm before the curve. I have a 4.5" grip, a handbrake, and an old friction type gear shifter all mounted on one side and equivalent on the other.

if you want to raise the handlebars you will need a Stem Riser. take a 5mm allen wrench. and remover the bolt going into the stem on the handlebar. be careful once you take the bolt out the front forks will fall off !! you can get a stem riser from Giant here on amazon !! reasonable if it doesn't work just let me know

Jay F. I used the stem mount that came with my Topeka ride case but Iam pretty sure there was a bar mount in the packaging also. I love this case I've actually had one crash with the case on my bike and there was no damage to the phone and it didn't even come loose. On the down side some time later I droped the phone and cracked the back glass. I didn't even notice it until I removed the case several days later. I've had the case for two years now and it's been a great addition to my bike

Motorola S9 is a behind the neck wireless headset. I got it specifically for biking. You do need to find a good place to keep the player though so there is not to much between it and the headset so the signal gets through. I have it mounted on the handlebars in a pouch, but an armband would probably work better as I do get some skipping. It is the best option, I've looked. In fact I bought the T10 for this headset.

It's a taper fit. You can pop it off with a ball joint tool (fork) or a wedge of some sort. I even used a large screwdriver and a mallet... Then just install a new one with a sharp strike to set the taper.
