|   New handling problems | Eliot
Oct 11, 2001 3:30 PM | | Just changed my stem and bar from a 130 syncros to a 120 Thomson. Syncros low riser bar to an Easton low riser....Now the bike is "sketchy...skips around on turns, almost like the front is lighter...(actually is 130grams lighter)...what do I do, I thought the shorter stem would give me some quicker steering....any hints? |

We won't talk about the possibility that your technique is at fault. You could try a larger front tire with good bite. Shortening your bar will speed up steering too, if you feel that is the problem. Of course, you can always just put your old stuff back on. |
