I doubt this thing has been taken apart since it's creation. I've loosened the bolt on the stem and tried a few things to get the bars unstuck. Any tips on how I can get this all apart?

Re: Removing handlebars/stem
I think if you take that bolt you lossened and tap it down into the tube, it will release some locking cams allowing the stem to slide out.

Do up the bolt again then undo it only 1 or 2 turns and give it a goodly whack or 7 with a hammer, should be tight again then give her another 1 or 2 turns and do the hammer whacks again, might have to do round 3 of a couple of turns and the whacking but it should loosen by then.

So the bolt should still be threaded? I did whack it once and it just went totally loose. I'll back it up and re-thread it again and try a few more time. I have a 10lb sledgehammer if this all fails.
