Gen1 handlebar slips down

ronzul · 01-22-2015, 07:07 AM

Hi

I've just purchased a second hand i167, and the handlebar keeps slipping down (even with the height adjustment collar done tightly).

Any tips?

Thanks
Ronny

Hi Ronny

I just noticed that I missed a call from you.
Sorry.

My guess is dust.
As one adjusts and re-adjusts height, the collar grinds a little each time.
You can get a film of talcum like dust.

Loosen the collar, slide it up, and simply clean the general area.

Good Luck
Michael
