My stem post is solid...even when it was at it's stock length (now 3 inches shorter). I've noticed, however, that your stem post is mounted reversed. According to all the pictures I've seen from the Xootr and Swift website, the quick-release side of the post should be facing towards the front of the bike. I don't know if this will make any difference in your situation, but it's just an observation.
