Actually I think it was listed for like 7 hours or so before it sold. It went fast though! Anyone see that?

Didn’t see the, @ubik55—do you need one? There are a few options linked from the parts page, if so.

Just curious—did you notice the asking price?

Oh I don't really need one, but I thought about buying it since they are so rare to see pop up on there. Someone else bought it though, I shouldn't have hesitated! Asking price was $90 but maybe the buyer made an offer, not sure.

Yeah…Even if I didn’t have a vice in my garage, I’d still rather bend a 3/16” Allen key with one of the doors in my house than pay $90.

For reference, here’s a bar that came with one of my Flys, pictured next to one I made (the black stuff at the end of the DIY was an experiment to see if a Fly owner could live with a Flex Seal-coated end, in the event they didn’t want to bother with drilling and shaping a foam dowl into a tip (which I ended up sticking with):

That looks cool, @mmmguitar! And I completely agree—I’d rather do the DIY version than pay $90 for that!
