Default bolts

as rob said ,which two ,theres a few ways to easily remove stripped fastners.
if your not in a hurry,some reg jb weld applied in the shcs and push the allen wrench in and let it set overnight(works for fastners with not a lot of accsess

if your wrenches still have some bite, you could place the head in an oven set to 300F for a short time to loosen the threadlock, and try again to loosen them.

You will need to comlpetely degrease that screw head and wrench to get the joint to bond when using the JB weld..

If mmracecars suggestion doesn't work... I would probably cut spindle between the grip and head.


For future, if cap screws don't start to move with reasonable effort, it's always best to try some heat before stripping or breaking off the tip in the socket.

Lynx makes some very nice spindle bolts. Might want to look into a set before putting it back together.

I have those too. Beastly. Allows a bigger wrench for more leverage.

Same problem here.
I managed by drilling the socket head, because I knew I would have replaced all the bearings. In this case also the spindle was spoiled, of course.
