[Closed] removing stuck spd cleats

SPD cleats were well and truly stuck in my shoes and after reading all the feeds on here I realised I would need to drill them out. Spent hours drilling with a high speed "for metal" drill bit with very little success - but then went and bought a BOSCH Titanium 6.5mm drill from B & Q - and with a tiny drop of bike oil for lubrication - hey presto - talk about hot knife through butter - cleats instantly removed in about 5 seconds flat - success! So titanium drill bit is the way to go - cost me a fiver. Well worth it. Lesson learned though - grease them screws well before you install and check them regularly.
