My stem has been giving me all sorts of issues. Probably not helped by the fact that I'm mechanically dyslexic.
After finally getting it out of the headset (it was tight as a nuns chuff) i'll be buggered if i can get it in and tightened up again....
When I put it back in the headset and try to tighten it up, i get no resistance. In other words the lickle bit at the bottom spins round as i try to tighten. I tried giving it a little tap up into the stem before I push that back in the headset but i just either keeps spinning or forces the quill stem too wide to go back in the headset.
Any ideas?
