I have a 5600(?) mountain bike. My son wanted me raise the handle
bars and I couldn't. The shaft from the front forks go up only so far
- and there's two donut spacers that go right on the shaft. While
disassembling this I also noticed that shaft is loose and moves
forward and aft like it's loose. There's a split washer that fits
into the frame tube but that only goes so far - you'd think it'd go in
further to stop the shaft from wiggling. So how to stop this shaft
from wiggling? Am I missing something here? Should I take into the
shop for a taller handle bar shaft? What a stupid design - not being
able to tighten the stirring shaft to the forks! Any advice?
Thanks
