Tryall Carbon bars-Torque setting for the stem bolts?

Recommended Posts

This has probably been asked a heap of times already but I cant access the search box to search the forum. Anyone know the official torques setting for handlebar clamp for these bars. I have a choice of both Try-all 3D forged stem with the two bolt clamp, or a try-all four bolt clamp stem. I'll probably use the four bolt stem.

Can anyone tell me the settings for both these stems so I dont damage the 'bars?

Cheers.

I'm going to hazard a guess that the torque will depend on the clamps, not the handlebars. There are at least 3 types of clamps I can think of and I'm sure that tightening all 3 types to the same torque will not result in the same clamping force.

I've owned a pair of Bonz carbon bars for probably 2,5 years now and never paid much attention to appropriate torquing of bolts. Had lots of different stems throughout those 2,5 years too. Obviously you'll be safer torquing them correctly but if you've got a feel for tools then you'll be fine.

If you want to reduce the clamping force, there are friction pastes available:

I used this when I used TryAll Karbon bars, and I could reduce clapming force quite a bit. On the other hand, I´m not entirely sure if it´s really necessary...

IMO is better the option of 2 bolts clamps because seems to embrace the bar with a full dynamic clamp, the options of 4 bolts, both parts are static and sometimes I have the feeling that force the bar against this parts...
