    Cheers for the tip. Can anyone recommend a suitable epoxy metal. There seems to be a lot of choice on Amazon!

    The other bolt didn't look like it was threadlocked and came off with a fair degree of force. I'll try the plusgas soak first and if that fails I'll put the kettle on!

    I can soak it for a week or more. I'm in no rush!

    Brill. Thank you. I think a good soak with Plusgas is worth a shot. In all honesty, I should have done this first!

    Re: Gents. Thanks for the amazing replies. I might try the liquid metal and torx first as that doesn't require drilling I guess. If that fails I'll move to the screw things. Sure it's to do with the alu bolt not being manly enough to cope with the leverage. Someone's done it up real tight! I'll...

    Trying to remove a counter sunk pivot bolt from the drive side bearing of my EST project. The bolt has well and truly rounded and I've tried the torx bit trick to no avail. Anyone have any ideas how I might get it out? I've done a little research and believe there are screw in bits called...

    Re: Nice. Love the SE2000 paint job. Flexstem shouldn't be a problem but the fork will be I'm afraid. You could try and locate a non Force40 1" fork and run the front brake cable through the hangar on the Flexstem. You'll have the look just not the Force40.

    Re: Think it is just the fork itself. The bikes aren't common and would imagine a separated fork would be hard to find. You might be able to find a donor bike. What forks do you have now?

    Re: Re: Lovely thanks 24pouces. Did you convert from the DuPont codes or just find the closest RAL match? I'll have clear coat applied over the decals for sure!

    Looking to get an SE 1000 frame resprayed and just wondering if anyone had found a suitable replacement for the Green/Cosmic Black DuPont paint codes in the RAL reference system? There is no conversion chart available so it really is a matter of judgement, hence looking for someone that has done...

    Just like the ones pictured. Have earlier editions with SE rear currently and want to get this bike's groupset period correct :D PX + cash on my existing setup or just cash. Whatever is best.
