Re: [RBW] Re: Headset adjustment

I think you are correct - after all this! I now think the movement is just the flex of the exposed quill allowed by the hole of the locknut being just a bit larger than it could/should be.

I think it's a tall quill stem being yanked by wide bars (Boscos in my case) and these are the results. I'm going to keep riding it as is.  On Wednesday, September 6, 2023 at 12:07:36 PM UTC-7 rmro...@gmail.com wrote: Greetings folks. I would appreciate any input regarding this. Since new I have had some movement in my headset / stem that concerns me, possibly unnecessarily so? Please review the attached video link and tell me what you see. I felt the headset was a bit loose so tightened it a bit. This made no difference. The minimum insertion line for the Faceplater stem is a full two centimeters below the headset lock nut. So, the question seems to be is this stem quill movement excessive &  if so how to eliminate it. I do mind the inherent flex. It no doubt contributes to the comfort of the bike? I just want to be certain it is safe and causing no harm. I appreciate your help.
