Anyone ever over-tightened the bolt retaining the brake pads on a Louise 07 disc brake? I have and I can't get it back out, would appreciate any advice.
Cheers!

1. really good quality allen key.
2. Heat to try and loosen.
3. If that fails, cut the bolt in half and work on it with needlenose pliers or mini mole grips.
4. Pass the problem on to a friend or a bike shop.
