Chapman) Distribution: net Organization: U of Waterloo, Ontario Lines: 22 Summary: If I may deviate slightly from the topic: my 1.5-year-old Miyata 1000 has recently started suffering from creaky handlebars. They creak when I apply pressure on one side or the other, but not both, which leads me to think that the stem or headset might be the problem. I've tried tightening the stem clamp, but to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas? If it will help, the bars are the alloy type with a reinforcing tube in the centre (Sakae Road Champion Randonneur), stem is an SR Royal, and headset is a Tange Levin sealed bearing. Thanks in advance, Kevin P.S. Charges have been laid in the Calgary bike incident - I'll post the article tomorrow if I remember to bring it in. -- Kevin Chapman Computer Communications Networks Group Waterversity of Uniloo 'Loo, Ont., Canada
