The previous owner of my bike tipped it over once, and bent the bolt keeping the bar end on so that the bar end is a bit crooked. It's annoyed me for a while so I decided to pull it out and either straighten the bolt or replace it. I got it almost straight and decided I needed to buy one, but when I tried to put the bolt back on, it won't tighten. It seems like all it is screwing into is rubber - is that the case? If it is I'm guessing I stripped it... another weird thing is that in between the bar end and the inner rubber is a nut, but it's bigger than the bolt so it's only acting as a sort of spacer. Has my bike been ghetto rigged at some point? :-\ I don't wanna take apart the other side to find out in case it is rubber and I'll just strip it too =P
Thanks in advance...
