Introduction
Bicycle safety is key to a safe and enjoyable trip no matter where or how far. One of the most crucial safety features is handlebar alignment. Most riders don’t notice even the slightest unalignment until something unexpected happens. To prevent any potential safety hazards, I encourage you to check your bike's handle bars every time you ride.
For this project you will need an Allen wrench or hex key.
