Bike addict Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 (edited) I had this. All i did was weld an allen key to it, get it out, then heat it up again to get the allen key out. This all depends on wether or not you are wanting to use the bolt again Edited March 8, 2006 by Bike addict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elitetrialer Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Yea ....i have been in this situation plenty of times what you might want to try is using a bigger alan key and hammering it in....but this depends on weather you want to use the bolts after your finished? peace out Ange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
