Something interesting happened yesterday.
On the way to work, I noticed a slight shudder/vibration under light/medium braking through the bars. On the way home, same but little worse under the same condition.
When I pulled into my garage, I looked down and noticed the triple-clamp stem cap worked itself loose and was rested on top of the head-tube of the frame (explaining why I felt a loss of range of movement in the bars during a slow speed turn).
I do not have the bike with me at work today so I cannot look at it in detail, but does that stem-cap hold the head-tube bearing nut in place?
I need to pick-up a 14mm allen on the way home from work so I can re-install that cap securing in place.
