mrbaker Posted December 1, 2010 Share I've just put my new carbon handle bar on my bike & when I tighten the bar ends with the torque wrench (to 5Nm) they still swivel when under a medium amount of pressure. I don't want to over tighten the bolts as this might crack the bar...Any suggestions??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted December 1, 2010 Share 1. The handlebar should be bar-end compatible - It will have alu/metal inserts at the end. 2. Use carbon paste - There have been a couple of threads about carbon paste this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
