Does anyone know the torque settings for a Hope Stem. It's making a few clicking noises, so I want to re-tighten it, but I've lost the torque figures.

torque settings for what?
the top cap bolt? there is none as you do it tight enough to pre-load the bearings."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

No, the stem to steerer clamp (2 bolts) and stem to bars clamp (4 bolts)0

it it is making clicking noses it is most likely the bearing pre-load.
but what size are the bolts?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

I'm sorry, my original post was unclear. I'll rephrase it.
Does anyone who uses a current Hope stem, still have the paper work that came with it and if so, could they let me know the torque settings for the steerer and bar clamp bolts.

Thanks.
7-8Nm for the stem/steerer bolts
5Nm for the bar clamp bolts

Zaskar20, thanks for your help, that's exactly what I was after. I can sort that right now and get out and ride. Cheers.
Edit: Sorry Nicklouse, I didn't see your post. The bolts are 5mm, but I have the answer I was looking for now. Thanks.0
