Thanks Evan. I wanted to change the stock stem on my new Trek 1.2 with an adjustable one for different riding conditions such as aggressive group rides and then casual rides with the grandkids. This is the only video I've seen that shows how to change a stem. I've read forums explaining how it's done and it sounds easy enough but for a beginner like me it's nice to see it done. Thanks...

Nice job. I would like to see a video which shows the guts of how the threadless system works, and also the specific tool used to remove the bearings. Remember, youtube is low res, so have the camera do close ups of the parts. Thanks.
