(1/3) > >>

motomagII:
i have a brsand new stem fitted to ride has got allen bolt fitting to forks .one is stuck tried once and the allen key rounded the head off straight away how the hell do i remove this now please

CD17:
Get a torx or something similar, hammer it in & try to undo  :daumenhoch:

Or if no good drill it & try an easy out  ???

lazychubs:
undo all the others then it should come undone a tad easier

motomagII:
its the one that holds it on the forks .tightened and loosened the other one to see if it made any difference but didnt then the allen key moved and killed the shape of the allen part of the bolt .

whats a torx and easy out ?????

lazychubs:
cant you try and whack a slightly bigger allen key in
as ive done that b4
easy out is a reverse drill bit
as it drills in it winds the bolt out
