Two adjustments at once

Adjustable Stem for 1 1/4” bars

Adjustable Stem


After adjusting the stem, I wanted the bars higher and back further to me, I felt there was something about controlling the bike. Rode the bike a little, and realized I needed to tilt the brake levers forward and down the same angle I rotated the stem up, to get the same angle from my hands to my fingertips on the levers. Now it feels fine. I’m going to take it for another test ride.
