Assuming that you have generic plastic bar ends with wedge guts, and a single screw to pull them tight. If you have taken the screw right out you may have screwed yourself hahaha. You loosen the screw 4 or 5 tunrs and then tap it back in with a hammer or something. You don't have to hit it hard just a light tap should be enough to push the wedge piece back and loosen the bar end. It should slide right out after that.

Yeah, you're all too busy arguing with Old Man Matrix.

One day he's a personal trainer, the next he's a skatepark owner. Tomorrow he's The One. Whoa.

No, I just make enough to have a skatepark. A friend asked me to help and well, now I own it. In other words, I put up alot of cash and he built it. Then sold me the part he paid for about a year later. So, now I work 5 days a week for 5hrs a day. And then ride the rest, it helps that ontop of my salary my wife makes 123K a year. Lawyers make good money...I only make 70$ an hour...she makes alot more.

Damn what do you want? You can only train so many a day. And whats 70x5? 350$, a day 5 days a week. 350x5? 1750$ a week, and that can go up if I feel like chargeing more. My company allows up to 95$ an hour...but you need 2 certificates 1st. You need an ACE and another. Right now I only have ACE.

i guess since you only work a few hours a day it doesn't really add up to much

Why are you telling us all this? It's all personal info. I don't really want to know how much you and your wife make because frankly, I couldn't care less. Stop bragging.

One could say the same about your situation with your girlfriend, ex-girlfriend, whatever the case may be this hour, but we don't... oh wait, I just did, nevermind.

That was just cold though. I'm not bragging about anything and I needed support.

No, just means your opinion on almost anything is useless to me. NOW, if you have a honest and intelegent comment...that would be cool...and a change.


PS. Thats just sick...spend alot of time at the SPCA.

do you get off on people talking about peoples family? bet if someone talked about your family to your face you'd be on that ass. and you know i'm right. and why are you so negitive to this guy? he has put you in your place 2 times on incorrect info. sue him, you and mude must just hate being wrong.

actually i havent really posted any info that could be considered right or wrong, only my general comments and when i have said somthing wrong i've admited.

and no, if someone said anything about my family to my face i wouldnt do anything to them because im only about 125 pounds. sometimes you just gotta learn that on cyberspace you cant take anything personally because a keyboard isnt personal.

The best way to take your barends off is to simply buy Slambars. And get Fly nylon bar ends.
Still loving all this drama, matrix really is taking it!

Agreed. Your explanation is long and good. I'm stealing it.
