Abstract: An alignment tool for aligning the handlebars relative to the front fork of a bicycle. The alignment tool provides a handlebar connection point and a fork connection point that simultaneously engages the handlebars and the fork assembly, respectively, spaced apart from the fork assembly. In certain embodiment, the handlebar connection point and the fork connection point are movable relative to each other between a plurality of contracted and extended conditions. The method of using the present invention embodies the alignment tool to engage while adjusting the handlebars relative to the fork assembly in such as ways as to gauge the alignment tool's alignment, and thus the handlebar's assembly, relative to the fork assembly.
