Joe,
My pitch is that you save via not paying tax and shipping. If you've
shipped bars you'll get that this is a fair deal.

“Shipped” price means the seller will pay for shipping. “Net” means the
buyer pays for fees if applicable (ie PayPal fees). This is an excellent
price. Last time i shipped bars, i think it was $25 or $30.

price be ? $100? $75?

Thanks all for your suggestions! I really appreciate it. I did work on
this over the weekend, but unfortunately could not get it out. At first, I
tried the slotting method - using a Dremel tool to cut a small slot in
bolt, which I successfully did. I also added some lube and let it sit

Hello Ryan,
The problem with trying to drill out a hole and using a big enough easy-out

grabs. Solution, create a guide for the drill bit so that it

oof tough situation. when you cut the slot and tried to unscrew, did you
use something besides a screw driver? like a wrench with a slotted
socket? that could give you more leverage. if you can get a small hole,
a torx driver could give you more grip, and same deal with leverage. since

If you think the slot you've cut gives you enough bite you can get decent
torque on a screwdriver/whatever you're using, it may be worth trying the
lubricant again. Put the bike on its side so the oil will drain down into
the threads, and use a penetrating oil like pb blaster/boeshield/wd40 if

Follow the Adventure Cycling route 1 to 101. There are state parks at
Gaviota, Refugio & El Capitan. There is one dicey bridge but it is short,
well marked, with good sight line & warnings to cars to look out for
bicycles. I have ridden this route several times & consider it perfectly
safe.

You hinted at how you got here later down the thread. Can you describe
exactly how you got here? The hint was you were screwing in a bolt into
your shifter boss and you felt a lot of resistance and you just kept
forcing it until the bolt broke.
1. Seems pretty safe to guess you did not run
so is it shipped price or buyer pays shipping I guess I am confused now.
which sometimes does not take much.

I took a look at the coastal trail link. This is the first I've heard about
it. They note that it's unlikely they'll get permission to cross Vandenberg
AFB in this century. Amtrak's rail line pre-dates Vandenberg so it skates
along the cliffs between Gaviota & Lompoc. Beautiful train ride but it

Not sure what tools you have; my cordless drill has an impact-ish setting

another ride the following day on quiet roads (they do exist!) just north

The way I understand it now is if I wanted the bar I would make sure he
sees $81 in his account and he pays whatever he can sort out to ship it to
me. The way I phrase this when I post stuff is "$81 shipped", he says it
differently.
