Thanks for your suggestions on how to attack my stuck stem wedge. The consensus certainly seems to be that I need to attack it from the bottom of the head tube. That suggestion makes a lot of sense to me. Unfortunately, it also means that I need to remove the front fender and [most likely] the front brake as well. It is amazing how what began as a relatively simple, straight-forward project has become much more involved.
My plan is to purchase a Nitto Tallux stem to use on this bike, as I am looking to go both a bit taller and longer than my current stem. Is it possible [or likely] that the stuck wedge has caused any damage to the head tube that will make this plan not work? Anyone have any experience with a threadless stem adaptor, such as this one sold by VO? VO Threadless Stem Adaptor <http://store.velo-orange.com/index.php/components/stems/quill-stems/vo-threadless-stem-adaptor.html>. I have contemplating using one of these and a VO threadless stem on this project, but think that the Tallus will work even better for me. Again, thanks for your help.
