Hi,
can't post a video now, but let me try to explain it one more time, as I think I might have not done it properly in my first post. So, basically when all the handle bar and handle bar stem latches are locked, and I hold the front wheel tight between my legs and start turning the handbar to the left or right, it moves almost without any effort from bottom part all way up. Basically the whole stem turns left or right, but the wheel( and fork of course) isn't. So, if i try to ride, as soon as I try to steer, my bike keeps going straight, but my handle bar turns to desired direction. I am start thinking that it all comes from the allen key bolt at bottom of stem as it is just 2.5cm long and I think it needs to be about 3 or 3.5cm.
Will be more than happy to hear your advice.
