>>959240just don't use all your force, you'll be fine. also, why would you need a stand? just take the top cap off and change the stem, it's as simple as that. grease is good, because the stem won't get stuck and tightening the headset (with the top cap) will go easier.
question:
i like the hand position i have with flat bar with bar ends for climbing and speed, but i also like the wide grip i have with risers for the downhill part. what's the solution here? i just tried putting the bar ends on a wide riser, it looks ridiculous, pic related. has anyone ever tried putting the bar ends *inside* of the grips and brakes? is there any downside to this?
