Using the Chester 31.8mm Stem is easy. First, make sure your handlebar has the right diameter of 31.8mm. Then, use the four - bolt bar clamp to secure the handlebar tightly to the stem. You can adjust the stem angle to +8 degrees or -8 degrees according to your riding preference. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the bolts to ensure they are tight but don't over - tighten them as it might damage the parts. Clean the stem with a mild detergent and a soft cloth to keep it looking good. Also, avoid exposing it to extreme conditions for a long time as it can affect the strength of the aluminum material. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it's a good idea to replace the stem for your safety.
