A bugging question
Hi
The new bike arrived this morning and there is something bugging me. The bike came in a huge box, with the handlebars upside down (standard practice I assume to fit the bars into the box). I had to take the bars off and put them round the right way. Having done that I noticed that the where the stem fits onto the frame of the bike you can see the bar that runs into the bike (sorry dont know the right words for it) its steel looking. On pictures of the bike online its black to fit with the stem. Does anyone know if I have dropped a part or should I speak to the company that I bought it off?

You can't generally see it, as there should be spacers around it, either above or below the stem according to the handlebar height you want. The spacers are usually black. Look for a set of rings/short tubes about 1.125 inches in inside diameter.
Thanks for the reply. Here is the bike I bought. You will see what the stem is attached to is Black whilst mine is steel coloured.
