Broken Sugino Stem

(1/3) > >>

Bathtub57:
After getting a bit of movement on my handlebars I pulled them out to discover the alloy part of the stem is broken.  Is this a part I can buy somewhere - what would it be called?



On a related, but separate note, another stem has a rounded off allen bolt on the main stem bolt - is there a fix to get this undone, it really is completely rounded off. 

MaD-RoK:
Its called a wedge.  :daumenhoch:

MaD-RoK:
Not sure what fitting these copies have if you get stuck on a replacement, best off putting an add up in wanted.  :coolsmiley:

Bathtub57:
OK< thanks. So I guess it's a wanted ad for a Sugino Wedge.  Trying out a wedge from a cheap headset might be an option - anyone done this?

Any thoughts on the second question - how to remove a stem with a rounded allen bolt?

bobbysam:
Is the Allen bolt proud ? If it is just cut a slot with a hacksaw and use a large bladed screw driver
