5.1. HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY STEPS
!IMPORTANT!
First assemble the 4ZA Cirrus TT kit without cable routing to determine the desired positions. After determining the desired position disassemble and reassemble the 4ZA TT kit
with cable routing. Consult page 17 to 20 to make sure the cable routing is done appropriately.
5.1.1. EXTENSION INSTALLATION STEPS
The rst step in the 4ZA TT handlebar kit installation is the installation of the extensions. Page 11 to 16 provide the necessary information concerning the adjustability of the
extensions and the necessary components to achieve the desired setup. Pay attention to all warnings given on page 10 to 15. Assembly of the TT kit is considerably easier with two
persons. Use the exploded view on page 5 as a guide. Regardless of the position of the extensions the assembly process uses the following 14 steps:
Step 1: Position the basebar on the bicycle.
Step 2: Determine the desired extension width (Page 11).
Step 3: Determine the desired extension height and derive the appropriate bolt length (page 12 and 13), pic the necessary spacers and bolts.
Step 4: Determine the desired extension angle (Page 14). Pic the appropriate extension spacers and extension insert spacers.
Step 5: determine the desired extension length (Page 16).
Step 6: Route the brake controls through the basebar (Page 18), rst assemble the TT kit without cable routing).
Step 7: Route the shift controls through all components needed to install the extensions (Page 19 and 20), pay close atention not to forget to route the cables through the
extension insert spacer. Pay attention to the mounting direction and to the mounting order of the spacers. (rst assemble the TT kit without cable routing).
Step 8: Place one of the in step 3 selected M6 bolts through the predetermined hole in the basebar.
Step 9: Position a basebar spacer on top of the basebar. Use the M6 bolt to hold the spacer in place.
Step 10: Stack the predened amount of spacers on top of the basebar spacer. Use the M6 bolt to keep the stack into position.
Step 11: End the stack with an extension spacer, pay attention to the mounting direction of the 5° extension spacer..
Step 12: Position the extension on top of the stack, make sure to place the M6 bolt through the predened hole in the extension.
Step 13: Place the extension insert spacer inside the extension. Use a wheel quick release to make positioning easier (page 15) Pay attention to the insert position of the 5°
extension insert spacer.
Step 14: Slightly tighten the M6 bolt using a 4 mm allen key, position and tighten the second M6 bolt. Tighten both bolts to the advised torque settings of 4Nm.
repeat this process for both extensions.

5.1.1. ARMREST INSTALLATION STEPS
The second step in the 4ZA TT handlebar kit installation is the installation of the armrests. Page 17 provides the necessary information concerning the adjustability of the
armrests and the necessary components to achieve the desired setup. Pay attention to all warnings given on page 17. Assembly of the TT kit is considerably easier with two
persons. Use the exploded view on page 5 as a guide. Regardless of the position of the armrests the assembly process uses the following 13 steps:
Step 1: Determine the desired armrest height and derive the appropriate bolt length (page 12 and 13), pic the necessary spacers and bolts.
Step 2: Determine the desired armrest position on the extensions (page 17).
Step 3: Determine the desired armrest width (page 17)
Step 4: Stick a velcro sticker on top of the armrest.
Step 5: Place one of the M6 bolts through the appropriate hole.
Step 6: Flip the armrest upside down and stack the predened amount of spacers on top of the ipped armrest. Use the M6 bolt to keep the stack into position.
Step 7: End the stack with an extension spacer.
Step 8: Flip the subassembly around and place them on the predened position on the extensions.
Step 9: Place the extension insert spacer inside the extension. Use a wheel quick release to make positioning easier (page 15).
Step 10: Slightly tighten the M6 bolt using a 4 mm allen key, position and slightly tighten the second M6 bolt.
Step 11: Adjust the armrest position by moving the bolt slot relative to the M6 bolt.
Step 12: Tighten both bolts to the advised torque settings of 4Nm.
Step 13: Stick the velcro armrest pad to the velcro sticker applied in step 4.
repeat this process for both arm rests.

5.2. EXTENSION SETTINGS
The position of the extensions can be altered in width, height, angle and length. Mount the extensions so the handholds are located in the desired position. Armrest pads can
subsequently be moved relative to the extensions allowing to optimize pressure points and position.
5.2.1. EXTENSION WIDTH
The basebar offers the possibility to mount the extensions either at a distance of 100mm or of 180mm relative to each other.
!IMPORTANT!
The 180 mm extension width position does not allow for a stack of spacers higher than 20 mm!

4za cirrus tt handlebar | manual | 12
5.2.2. EXTENSION HEIGHT
Height of the extensions can be determined by inserting the appropriate combination of spacers. Start the stack using a basebar spacer, end the stack using an extension spacer.
Stacks higher than 20 mm can be achieved by using the riser set, extra information on this set can be found in the topic expansion sets.
!IMPORTANT!
In case of a stack of spacers higher than 20 mm it is obliged to add a bridge for added stability. This bridge should be inserted just below the extension spacer.For stacks of less
than 20 mm a bridge may be used.
!IMPORTANT!
Pay attention to the mounting direction of all spacers. bulges and dents are integrated in the spacer shape in order to improve stability of the stack.
Pay attention to the different bolt size for each stack height.

5.2.3 EXTENSION ANGLE
The extensions can be mounted at an angle of 0 or +5 degrees. Depending on the angle different extension spacers and extension insert spacers have to be used. The 4ZA TT kit
contains two different types of extension spacers and extension insert spacers. The 5° extension spacer is noticeably thicker than the 0° extension spacer, as shown on the
image below. The 5° extension insert spacer is marked with the letters U and D, in contrast to the 0° spacer which does not contain any marks. The U side of the 5° extension insert
spacer has to be pointed facing the upward side of the extension. The D side of the 5° extension insert spacer has to be pointed facing the downward side of the extension.
0° extension spacers should always be used in combination with 0° extension insert spacers. Equally 5° extension spacers should always be used in combination with 5°
extension insert spacers.
