Hi TT, The stem has been Hi TT, The stem has been solid. I both pull on the handlebars as well as push on them and the stem is solid. It is not infinitely adjustable, but has teeth that set it in place. Cheers, Charles

Hi Greg, Sounds very Hi Greg, Sounds very promising! And, remember, if you finish but don't post pictures, you never really finished. :D Cheers, Charles

Hi Wil, What he (Ak-tux) Hi Wil, What he (Ak-tux) said. :) In my case, I watched the videos several times before my bike ever arrived and then spent time going through the steps in my driveway. A couple of other pointers (in addition to what's above which is right): * Spinning...
