Got an 0/S easton vice stem and attached it to my ea70 handlebars. There are gaps between the head bracket and the body of the stem were the 5m hex screws tighten up. Is this normal?javascript:emoticon(':oops:')

    the space should be equal top and bottom. and if the bars are the same size as the stem then yes.

  • The Thomson 4x I had on there before did right up with no gaps. So i was a bit concerned that The Vice did not do right up. I have done it up with top and bottom gaps equal as you have said.

    Thanks for your help!
