Afternoon all.

This may seem like a daft question but would I be right in thinking that I need to loosen the clamp bolts on the (steerer-mounted) stem and the upper crown before I adjust the top cap in the usual way?

Just trying to get it right in my head before I start. Cheers.

    all the clamping bolts on the upper crown (IE dont forget the legs).

    And do them up again stem first, then crown (otherwise you can get gaps in my experience).

    Thanks fellas. I couldn't visualise how the top cap could do anything while the upper crown is bolted up
