    Tricky one here… rounded a Ti allen key bolt (located on my cranks – hollowtech 2 Ultegras).

    Any top tips fpr removing it before I either :
    a)make a complete obllox of it and end up having to grind my cranks off and buy a new non-drive side crank,
    or
    b) lose lots of blood/layers of skin, swear repeatedly then have to take it to the bike shop

    Answers on a postcard, please and thankyou in anticipation

    get your dremel multi out
    get your dremel multi out (you *do* have a dremel multi, right?), grind a slot in either side of the bolt head and undo it with a flat blade screwdriver?
