Cannondale SI fork - no headset adjustment?

Hi All. I just started building up my new C'Dale Super Six frame. I put on my handlebars/stem and noticed that unlike other threadless stems I've used in the past, in which the top cap screws into the steerer tube and compresses the stem/fork/headtube together, the new top cap only has an expander bolt to hold it in place. So the stem is really the only thing keeping the fork from falling out of the frame. Does this sound right? Am I missing something here? Thanks boys and girls.

Sounds like it's an integrated stem like my Cannondale Caad7 frame.
