Can you adjust a road bike handlebar stem?




david


Is there any way that you can adjust the angle of a handlebar stem that is angled up? Or will I have to buy a new one? My local bike shop told me that they would adjust it but they never did.


Answer
If you have a threadless stem you can simply flip it over. If you have a quill stem you can't do any thing and must buy a new stem.

Which stem size should i get for my road bike?

I have a 1976 Schwinn Super Le Tour, im looking to get a new quill stem but i dont know the diameter size. Should the size be on the original stem if so how do i take it off the bike?


Answer
That bike uses a 1" quill stem. Loosen the bolt on top of the stem about 3 turns and then tap it down to release the wedge.
