IIRC @apollo had the same issue with one from Planet X - he will be able to advise...probably.

well remembered Vince.....@Thoma it is a piece of shite...the red bolt thing is basically fashioned out of warm Camembert
hope you didn't pay more than £20 for it... http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/STCIPIN/cinelli-pinocchio-quill-stem
I received a NOS Cinelli Pinocchio stem today. I excitedly went home and put it on my bike only for the wedge bolt to immediately give up in the alan key region. It wasn't even tight enough to not move in the steerer. Did I do something dumb? Did I accidentally order the stem du fromage? Either way, I cant just use another wedge bolt as it has a sleeve on the original which I can't get off, without which another bolt is useless. I'm a bit dicked off to be honest.
