2. Before you install a Judy XLC on the
bicycle, verify that the fork has been
supplied with the correct upper crown.
Refer to Fig. 2 for upper crowns
available for Judy XLC and to maximize
fork stiffness by proper selection and
orientation of the upper crown.
3. The steerer tube may need cutting to
proper length. To cut the steerer tube,
removal of the upper tubes are required.
This is necessary otherwise the upper
tubes will be in the way when cutting
the steerer tube to proper length. The
steerer tube length is determined by the
following parts: Judy XLC upper crown
steerer clamp length, stem steerer tube
clamp length, frame head tube length
and top and bottom headset stack
height (see Fig. 3). To ease in the
assembly, do not install the Judy XLC
upper crown on to the upper tubes until
the steerer has been cut to the proper
length and the lower crown has been
fastened in the required position. HINT:
MEASURE TWICE AND CUT ONCE!
