After I insisted they changed the handlebars, but it was still the same. It was very slight so not a big problem to ride it, but when you buy a new bike, you expect everything to be perfect !
    I was considering completely stripping the front of the bike this week to see where could be the problem, but now, I don't need to do it anymore...
    They will change the whole front deal : suspension forks, fork T, handlebars (again), everything that could be crooked or bent, without having to yell and convince them there's a problem, and without paying a dime.

    So yeah, in a way, I'm "lucky" to have it happen to me in this way.
    Glad to hear your alright.Bikes can be fixed or replaced.Humans are hard to fix or replace.
