    Rings? If you have an aheadset type handlebar stem, do you mean the spacers stacked on the steerer tube?

  3. Yes!
    i looked and on one of em it say: ahead., is it right to put one spacer over instead of under? .,. if i want it lower.,

    That's ok! You can stack the other on top if you dont want to cut the steerer. Another way of doing it is if you have an angled ahead stem. To illustrate, the Deda Newton 31/86 ahead stem has an 86ยฐ rise (angle between steerer axis and stem extension). This makes it possible, with a stem of 120 mm extension, to raise the center of the handlebar by 8 mm (0,3 inch) with standard assembly, or to raise the handlebar by 24 mm (1' inch) with reverse assembly.

  5. Ok Thanks man!
