That sounds very concerning. I didn't know that could even happen...

I don't know too much about bikes, but the one I had used some type of bolt to connect the handlebars to the main frame.

I was adjusting the height of the handlebars and I guess I didn't tighten it enough in the end. User error in all its glory.
