Necassary. My bike is already aero according to the name but this won't hurt. Hopefully this will shift some weight to my arms as my butt has been killing me on mmy new bike. I'd out the giant ssaddle on it but then the colors won't match up
It's REAL important to put everything together correctly.

1. Position your stem and any spacers. LEAVE THE STEM BOLTS LOOSE.

2. Install the top cap. Tighten the top cap bolt so that both:
A. if you rock the bike while lolding the front brake you don't feel a tick.
B. If you lift the bike the fork will flop by itself side-to-side.

3. Now make sure the handlebar is aligned with the front wheel and tighten the stem bolts. Alternate and walk them down a little bit at a time. Then need to be snug but they don't hold the whole bike together.
