Really? Where do you mean exactly? At each side where the shim ends or under the stem clamping area?

I must confess in my 27 years in the biz, I have seen very few bars break. And zero Cinellis. But who knows?

How about the rest of you.. Informal poll...Have you actually seen, first hand, Cinelli bars break?
