Just got out my T10 Torx driver and it looks like someone has beaten me to it and rounded out the bolts (brakes are 2nd hand). Any ideas on how to get them out? Really need to bleed the back one (old M4) before tomorrow's ride if possible. And where can i get replacement "bolts"?
Just cut a slot in it & use a screwdriver
As above - put gaffa tape over the rest of the cover to stop it getting scratched and possibly put two blades in the saw to get a wider slot.
Welcome to the world of cheese flavoured Hope bolts ๐
Second hand bike, someone had got there first with mine. I used a hacksaw to saw a slot for flat screwdriver, worked a treat. Buy some new bolts tho, possibly not Hope ones if you can source them, even the slots turn to gooey, soft cheese pretty quickly!
i hear a dremel doers a better job than a hacksaw if you've got one...
I've had this problem too - in the past I've managed to get away with using the next size up Torx bit and gently hammering it into the bolt and then undoing it.
