Abused



Perhaps I have been abusing my bike too much. This stem will now join the wall of shame alongside a sheared cassette, a siezed headset, a broken eggbeater pedal and various other cycling products that met their demise at my hands.

How did you notice that?...Did it make a noise when it failed?

I had noticed some creaking noises coming from my headset area and noticed the crack when cleaning the bike. Next investment...torque wrench.
