ABOUT THE EPISODE
A great person out there in listener land sent in a suggestion to talk with people about removing stripped bolts. He said he is a pro at removing stripped stuff as he has an extensive background in cars and the usual cussing that goes along with them. Tune in to hear some tips for removal plus some guidance on the “final step” if you have deemed the entire project to be a complete loss.
We want to hear from you! If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact Matt at matt@mountainbikeradio.com. If you have a question that is centered around a particular thing you heard on MBR please send the show name and time in the show the confusion arose. If it is from a specific article, send Matt a link. Something going on with your own bike or something in real life? Shoot over a photo with your question.
