I wanted to change bartape on my old dropbars so I swapped stems. I stripped the top cap in the process, and to top it off, I didn’t even tighten the compressor properly. I miss star nut, metal steerer days. It’s only a little loose but I don’t think it’s a good idea to ride the bike like that. Take up walking again until sort it out. ** Ok I was able to remove with it no problems. I got scared for a moment.
