Thanks to everyone who provided suggestions in my previous post about breaking the quill bolt loose. Unfortunately it looks like I need Plan B now because it broke alright...the bolt sheared off way deep inside the head tube. Any suggestions how to get the stem out now? I did manage to soak the inner workings of the stem and head set through the bottom of the fork, but there is a problem there as well because I can't get the screw holding the fender to the fork to come loose. There is enough play between the fender and the bottom of the fork that I could spray PBB in there and it ran down the head tube. All of the hardware that screws onto the steerer tube and compresses the bearings is moving freely. I just need to get the stem out so I can remove the fork and fender all at once.
Ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Cliff
