I recently bought a Schwinn point beach. I' ve assembled it myself. The problem is that when I turn the handlebars the wheel will turn but the handlebars (and logically, the stem too) will turn. It is secure vertically, but not side to side. tightening the lock nut either. Any tighter will strip it and the wedge as well.
I tryed to wrap the wedge w/ duck tape to add resistance but no luck. I don't want to resort to roughing up the stem w/sandpaper, but thats a last resort.
Does it sound fixable, or is it a manufacturer's defect?
