Danny Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Drill a small hole in the top of the bolt then drill progressively bigger holes until the bolt head simply drops off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprog! Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 easy way place the alen key into the bolt, tap the top of the allen key slightly for a fe seconds. It will make the allen key make a slight hole further down.Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTTY___ Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) Eather use a Torx drive bit, Click me. like shown, and smack a larger size in, Or if u dont actually need your top cap, saw a slot into the top, and remove with a screw driver.

jambo Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 i usually find a tight fitting torx bit and hammer it in so it grips the allen key head or undo your stem bolts jam your wheel between your legs and turn the bars to losen it off enough to undo. hope this helps.
