"right side of handlebar has small hole drilled into the end by original owner"

roughly translated

"I tried and failed to turn the stuck bars by drilling a hole through the end and turning them with a rod"

I love a bargain

about normal pricing for a ringle trail stem these days.

Should have had me around I'd make quick work of that stuck bar by dissolving stem and bars in a caustic soda bath, at which point I'd have fixed his particular dilemma and also rid the retro world of overpriced tat

Vote for me.

Shouldn't be too hard to remove the bars, shame as they were nice, not as nice as the stem though

Wonder if he tried loosening the stem bolts..
