Default Bar End Problem

Hey guys. I accidentally knocked the bike over in the garage. Everything is okay except for the left bar end. It actually broke off inside the handle bar. What do I do? How do I get the existing piece out of the handlebar and can you buy a new handlebar bar end set up? Thanks for any help!

Dremel a notch into the bolt, then use a flathead screwdriver to remove it. Replace the bar end if it was the only thing damaged, and you're good to go!

Many times the bar weight will break (this is the piece the bar end screws into). It's a rod with rubber grommets at two ends, which hold it internally against the handlebar tube. So you have to pull against the friction of these rubber grommets somehow if you need to replace the bar weight. Worst case, cut the grip and there's a hole underneath that _might_ help getting the bar weight out.
was a PITA when I did it.
