[edited to remove snarky comment... sorry!]

It doesn't matter what your original bike cost, $21 is cheap, even more so (in spades) when you " need to go for a ride ASAP!" You'd be riding now instead of making another post!

Don't get me wrong - I love to make things work, save money, not throw stuff away, and spend way too much time cruising used, cast out parts, specialty hardware/fastener stores, etc. etc. But $21, available immediately, riding immediately vs. spending another hour or a few days looking for a $5-10 alternative, to save $10 net .... come on!
