Anyone using a Thomson x2 stem atm? I have one of my all city and there seems to be a lot of creaking and slipping when I go over bumps or holes on the road at speed.
I have used grip gel and tighten up the bolts so much that it is pretty much on the verge of running the hex shape. I am worried about the bolts being shit, so I have ordered some ti bolts from ebay to hopefully resolve this issue, but is anyone having issues with this stem or is it just me?
