dang! that stinks. i've done the same to mine when i overtightened them. one was toast, the other i was able to salvage with a bolt one size bigger and copious amount of blue locktite. once it's on the bar, it's there to stay though.

allright, it's 11am and raining and i might just head down to the swap. maybe see some of you blokes there.
