    Pardon me for caring..

    but when did this become the "Comedy Forum"? The man asked a legitimate question and he has to wade through the comedy bits to see if anyone really knows the answer to his question. I had the same thing happen to me a couple of days ago and that is why I do not come to this forum as often as I used to.

    As to where in the dump. I get mine in the scrap metal bin. Lots of other good stuff there as well. Picked up a nice 4 drawer tool box last fall. Lots of good bikes. I clean them up and give them to local kids.

    I've only put stuff in a dump, never took stuff from one.
    It's called dumpster diving. You may need to think "inside the box" as well as "outside the box"...

    Julio.

    In bike shop lingo. That is a quick release binder bolt. The quick release is used on seat posts, wheel hubs, and sometimes stems.
    If you need to replace it, you need to know the inside diameter in inches. The sizes are somewhat standard.

    I'm Sorry you feel that way Lynn. I would rather endure the comedy than flaming and spamming.

    Best Regards,

    Julio, My town transfer station has a " Pun N Take" area. This is where people put stuff that may be of value to others. In my town many of the old yankees who are thrifty go and find amazing items in this disposable society. My neighor who is thrifty recently found a moped in the put n take and being the yankee engineer he is, fixed it up, and is no scooting around saving on expensive gas.
