Ok, can you read? Honestly, I read what he had to say, sounded like he used the wrong amount....ok, so could I, thats why I asked here for a number that works with both the steerer and stem!
And I also know the faceplate doesn't attach to the steerer....again if you actually read my post you would see that I said that incase anyone needed to know the model, since I don't have the model number.
Also I said if you had nothing helpful to say, please don't post in my threads......I'm asking nicely and you're still not getting it.

Mechanically disenfranchised - PC way of calling someone a klutz. I like it.

Want to try intectually bankrupt for $200?

Weyless is Supergo (they are eliminating that brand, now to be called... Supergo!).

Interesting that you would mention Supergo; I got a topcap/expander assembly there that has a top plate with a recessed section that goes into the steering tube, reinforcing it right at the upper edge (am I explaining this well?). Seems to offer a lot of support in what would be a vulnerable area during tightening.

It was a quill stem, which wasn't tightened down properly. Either way, you're right. The steering column is not for someone who doesn't know how to work on it properly.

I'll take "statistically bankrupt" for $400.
