nafan Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Make sure you do up your headset BEFORE you do up your stem bolts, that way it will tighten properly, mine was creaking a while ago and I found that was the problem...Also check your bar bolts are done up tight and evenly, especially if you have a three bolt bar clampGood luck, creaking grinding things are always annoying Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
