The roadside fix is a couple of drops of wet lube into the bar stem interface and tighten the clamp bolt.
Ok, what of the strangely spinning bolt?
Some Nitto stems have a nut on the backside that needs a wrench on it when you turn the Allen wrench on the front bolt to keep it from spinning, some do not. If you have a nut on the back of the stem that you did not hold still while you were turning the Allen wrench, that is likely your problem - the stem bolt was never tight.

*I can't add to any of the advice already given here, this is solely a complaining post.
I don't think it's "opposed" so much as the other Nitto stems - like most one-bolt stems - don't work that way. I've had a bunch of both models and don't think I've ever used a wrench on that nut, it wouldn't have occurred to me.

I have the extra tall Nitto stem with 50 mm reach. SomaFab makes it, Riv got it for and sold it to me and I love it. Everything seemed fine and then I gave my Clementine that major makeover I’ve gone on about on a separate thread. While I was lightening my bike I decided I should swap the cromo 55 Boscos for 52 aluminum Boscos. And those I love as well - they are perfect for me.
However, I noticed I’ve developed a strange ticking in the bars. Yes, it’s definitely from there, but what is NOT clear is if it’s the stem or the new Boscos. I took a video tonight, and you can hear the sound. It happens randomly, regardless of whether or not I’m pushing on my bars, but I can *also* create the ticking by jostling the bars. I’ll include a video where you can hear it in the next post.
Anyway, let’s talk about the stem first. Two things:
1. When I slid my new aluminum Boscos into the clamp on my stem and went to tighten the bolt, the bolt felt “stripped.” Which it could not possibly be, and which I had never experienced before (I installed the 55 cromo bars with no issue). Opposite the bolt is a nut that requires you to stabilize it with a wrench while you use your hex key to tighten the clamp onto your bars. Weird.
2. Can the ticking sound be because the stem is used to the cromo bar that was installed prior, and now it won’t play well with another bar?
Bars.
1. The aluminum bars have a sheath in the middle, where the clamp goes. Could the sheath have something to do with the ticking sounds? I have heard Nitto has QC issues. Could that be what I’m experiencing?
Videos and link to the stem in next post. One day, maybe I’ll get my bike problems solved. Oh, how you all long for that day!
Sorry! And thanks,
Leah

What happened was Leah aka Bicycle Belle aka Lone Wolf Leah popped her new/smaller bar in that stem and it slightly ovalized around its new smaller host, creating a gap somewhere which the bar is responding to by ticking or creaking as the two metals try to move around in that nearly invisible gap. I've certainly seen this ovalizing before, but never had a noise problem with it. For the moment the T9 seems to have filled that space and the noise is gone. Yay!
Someone asked about the steel vs. aluminum Bosco. Her alu version is 52cm vs. the steel 55.

Thank you
Either way, I get the same results.
And sometimes I click download and it just reopens the thread.
Which reminds me, we need a nice tall quill stem with an open face clamp!

"Why are so many opposed to using a simple wrench on a nut as Nitto intended for this model stem?"I don't think it's "opposed" so much as the other Nitto stems - like most one-bolt stems - don't work that way. I've had a bunch of both models and don't think I've ever used a wrench on that nut, it wouldn't have occurred to me.

Aside from BBDD's stem issue, a number have noted that the sleeved bars sometimes creak. I would expect that the sleeve is inflexible when clamped properly in the stem. The bars flex quite a bit, and the flexing may deform the inner bar a tiny bit at the ends of the sleeve and cause the creak.
