These 4 pc bars are perfection to me as far as looks, the way they feel, the way they stand the width and everything is awesome and I’m blessed to have them but dude what’s up with them just spinning wherever the hell the want 24/7? I mean for no reason I will lean my bike against a wall and 4 minutes after the handlebars turn and my bike falls, everytime I work on it too. Takes me so much effort just to straighten my back end out to reinstall my rear wheel and it’s starting to really get annoying getting smacked in the head everytime I carry this thing up my stairs into my apartment. I’m here asking for tips cause I heard from a guy once that he used adjustable brake kits the odyssey ones we were talking about at that time and he explained that he would feed them through or around the forks on his setup to stop the bars from turning and hurting him while bailing or to stop his bike from falling over I thought that was a interesting thing. I have an adjustable brake cable and everything else I just don’t know where I should feed it through or wrap it without getting a huge kink in my cable so I’m wondering if anyone knows about this trick? Any pointers? Or other tricks to keep my bars even just more straight than currently? They have a mind of their own. Unhinged ass handlebars 😂 help a brother out if you do please ! 🙏 thanks guys sorry for the long post this is driving me kinda nuts at this point. Ima end up getting impaled if I don’t figure something out

I’ve never had any difference in bikes being more or less stable since going to 4pc. For leaning the bike against the wall, use the back tyre and rest that against the wall, that’s a stable position. Handlebars move, they aren’t great against walls. Dunno about when the bike is upside down, mine fall over no matter what bars I’ve got
It falls whether you are running 2 piece or 4 piece bars if it is not leaning correctly. It swings freely as well if you run brakeless or with a gyro.
