UMI Handelbars

[brad2510]

Well I have put the handelbars on and everything looks great. The only thing that has been a problem is that the middle cross bar keeps moving. I rode the first time and thought it was just because they were lose. So I tightened them and went out again. That didn't help they moved again 5 minutes after I was out. Now the bars themselves are scratched pretty bad. Has anyone had this problem? To resolve this I was thinking of counter sinking a screw threw the black connectors into the bars. What do you guys think? Is there any other options that anyone has come up with?

Do you just have the bars or the full UMI setup?

[brad2510]

I have the full UMI setup.

I have not had that issue, did the screws loosen up the second time? If so I would try red loctite.

Yeah that is a strange problem...I beat the piss out of mine and have had no problems either...

[brad2510]

It's not that the screws are coming lose. they are still tight. it's just shifting.

[brad2510]

nobody has any suggestions.
