• nitto bars b260aa risers and a cinelli vai stem. these have been creaking for a while (3 months?) under more strenuous efforts, (up steeper hills etc) I tried re-installing etc a few times to no avail, sort of got used to it. anyway in the last few days this has suddenly stopped, and it's put the shits right up me. is my bike about to spontaneously combust?

  • Wowsa... well no, no combustion. Over tightened stem bolts to an extent and a 25.4 / 26.0 combo were the culprits. Components themselves were solid.
