Cervelo s3 handlebars lowering

Hi everyone, can you help with removing spacers on a cervelo s3 I’ve removed the screw cap and inside where the intergrated cables are there is a bolt with an allen key head, I have removed this but the whole headset etc is stiff and does not come away so asking if I’m missing something before attempting again, thank you Lee

    You could try googling removing spacers on a Cervélo s3. I did this and up came a link to the s3 Manuel.
  • Hi mate I’ve tried googling but nothing apart from the manual which I have and nothing on YouTube, I can dismantle it but it’s still very stiff to remove and didn’t want to cause any damage maybe I’ll give it another go at weekend, thanks for the suggestion though

    If you google Cervélo s3 there is review by cycling weekly that talks of them being difficult to remove. As I haven’t got one it doesn’t mean much to me but it might make sense to you.
  • Thank you again that does help and explains that I can lower it without any cutting, think I just need to put some muscle into trying to pull it out, really appreciate your time trying to help thank you mate.
