I bought the 2006 Randonee a few weeks ago on sale for $750 as my very first tourer. Actually, it is my very first 'real' bike. Happy with it so far, but was a bit ticked at whoever first assembled the bike. After getting it home, I noticed several bolts had been stripped and the rear rack was installed incorrectly and it was actually forced into misaligned slots; bending the rack in the process. Took it back to the store and they offered to fix everything, no questions asked and even actually apologized. Definitely the type of people I like to send my business to.
(1) handlebar plugs easily come off
Same exact problem on mine. Silly question, but how do I fix this? Glue it?
