Do not remove or replace the steerer tube. This could
result in the loss of control of the bicycle and SEVERE
INJURY OR DEATH.
Never attempt to remove or replace the steerer or
upper tubes independently from the crown. Modifying
the integrated crown, steerer, or upper tubes can cause
an assembly failure, resulting in a loss of control of the
bicycle and SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
Do not cut the steerer more than three (3) mm below
the uppermost installed part. If the steerer length is
mistakenly cut too short, the crown/steerer/uppertube
assembly MUST BE REPLACED! Using a fork with
clamped steerer engagement that is too short can lead to
sudden fork failure, which can cause loss of control of the
bicycle resulting in SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
