was looking to buy a stem on aliexpress and checked the bad reviews, some mentioned cracked stems, today I was fully dissasembling my bike for cleaning also got a new handlebar and so while removing the stem thought about those bad reviews checked the current stem and it is cracked, fuck, i got this years ago now I am thinking that motherfucker that sold it to me crashed his shit and decided to sell everything, i have also seen listings on facebook where the bike is clearly bent on the seatstays or there are visible cracks at the top tube from a typical frontal crash, fucking assholes, never buying anything second hand, keep your old rusty crashed shit or let it go and take it to the local scrap yard , thinking about going full steel dont give a shit if the whole bike ends up weighting 15kg, what the fuck am I supposed to do ? change all critical alloy parts every 3 years or something like that ? kinda mad but grateful that I am slow as shit to rebuild and wrench that it gave me time to notice this.
