j morelstein said:My trainer (a Cateye cyclosimulator 3000) has two legs in the front which
are bolted with two machine bolts to the body of the trainer. One of the
bolts has sheared off at the place where it enters the body of the trainer.
Virtually none of the shaft of the bolt sticks out from the body--certainly
nothing I can easily grab on to. Can anyone suggest a tool or technique I
should use to extract the broken part of the bolt from the body of the
trainer?
Cut a slit longitudinally into the bolt with a 32t hacksaw
blade about 2mm+ deep and use a screwdriver. A small slit in
the part around the bolt usually won't hurt much.
A mini cutoff wheel might do the same thing if you have one.
