I'm in Bozeman, MT right now and took a ride through downtown... was rising
out of a driveway and ended up going off a curb to make a turn and when my
front wheel hit the pavement, the screw holding the handlebars in position
snapped in two... leading the handlebars still attached but flopping freely
back and forth! Not very rideable.
Fortunately, I was but 3 blocks away from a nice LBS and -- given that I was
riding my Trek Navigator -- I was thankful that they were a Trek dealer and
had the replacement parts right there. Back on the road in 5 minutes. I'm
just glad I didn't go over the handlebars.
