The lower joint on my Break-Away is giving me troubles. Anyone ever have any problems with theirs?
My bike is only a few months old. I can't tighten the fitting enough before it bottoms out. It was creaking on me while pedaling, then Ritchey was nice enough to send a new clamp, but that one now spins slowly as I ride. My last ride was 3 hours and it turned 1/4 of the way around, started creaking again.
I researched these quite a bit because I was hesitant to buy one, thought the design looked risky. I have to go back to them again but would like to know if others have had problems.
