I see now, You probably figured it out now, but the pics you provide are before you tighten the stem bolt and compress everything. once you do that the gap will shrink.

Hello, the gap on mine was very minimal, maybe 1mm? But once you tighten the stem bolt and add compression, the gap on mine is very small, a fraction of a millimeter. Before I put on the new stem and handlebars I cleaned and regreased the top bearing, put a good coat to protect from any water...

Hello, yes you can. You'll just have to do some research and find the right stem and handlebars that will give you the desired position. Maybe a short stem with a 45 degree or more and some riser bars with a 35mm rise?

Yes the S and M have one spacer. You would need to take the bars off to see, I am guessing the steerer tube is longer on your L bike. Maybe the place you bought it when assembling didn't cut the steerer tube? If they used two spacers then that means they are needed. If you want to keep the bars...

I used an SRAM Garmin MTB mount. The specialized computer uses the same mount as a Garmin. I reused the part from the original Como bars that twist into the computer mount and give you the ability to adjust the angle. It also gives some clearance for the wire harness on the back of the computer...

When I say gravel road, I mean well groomed, smooth and compacted gravel trails we have here for runners/bikes. I wouldn't take this in the "outback" trails or anything that has really rough terrain. The bike is not meant for that. And, yes there is a star nut in the there:

The bike handles well and still feels comfortable. I'm 5'10" and have the medium size Como frame. The bars a more forward but since I only used a 70mm stem and 15mm riser bar, I don't feel like I'm extended a lot more than the original setup. My positioning is still more upright than a road...

These bars are form a Specialized 2023 Turbo Como. I changed the bars so don't need these anymore. They are an integrated stem/bar system that mount directly to a standard 28.6mm steerer tube. If you have a Como already these will fit perfectly. If you want to put them on another bike, they may...

Yes that is possible. You can find the same cover I did or anything between 56-61mm in diameter. As long as the cover is flat on the bottom it will sit on the compression ring and work. You need to get a higher angle stem, maybe 46 degree, and perhaps some 20-35mm riser bars depending on how...

It can be done! Here is my Como 4.0 IGH with Zipp stem, Carbon bars, Ergon grips, and FSA headset cover. Has a more sporty position and still comfortable. I think I like it better than the Vado.

Update on my project. It is possible to change the bars. It took a long time trying to find a headset top cover that would work since the Como has a large diameter headtube. I found one by FSA that is not perfect but will do. It is part of headset No.55R 1.5" the cover is part #H2285. They don't...

Hello I believe it is possible and I am in the process of trying to do it. I have a 2023 Como 4.0 I just took off the integrated bars/stem to see what is underneath and what I found that it seems to be possible. The only issue is finding a headtube cap/cover that will fit properly to protect the...

I have a Como too, which I love, but would like to lower the bars. I thought I would chime in here and see if anyone has tried modifying them. Looks like if you can find the right parts, it can be done. The only thing I wonder about is the frame, particularly the opening and finding the right...
