I own a Giant OCR 3 and I have a problem with the handlebars. The
handlebars creak and crack when i put my weight on them to sprint. How
can I fix this problem?

Check torque settings, maximum weight recomendations and other requirements
from the bar and stem manufacturers. The bar and stem that came with your
Giant are probably fine but I would look to the manufacturer's web site for
specs and installation instructions before you trust anything else WRT
installation instructions and if they are suitable for you.

Well it isn't. You can't post here again unless you lose 60 lbs first.

Your stem is adjustable and therefore has "moving" parts. The only fix is a new
stem that isnt adjustable.
