PhilDas’ recommendation was for flats to fit a wrench around the outside instead of screwdriver slots. They can apply a lot more torque that way, to more axle material.

Ah makes sense, will check with the shop tomorrow
Good shout also with the bike shipping - to be honest the bike is functioning just not possible to take apart. Issue is that the front tyre has a year of miles on it and I'll be dragging it through NC500 and Shetland. If/when I get a flat I am royally screwed!

Yeah I think they dremel/sawed slots to try and pry with a screwdriver, was apparently too soft - will hopefully get more details if not pics tomorrow as I'm currently having to juggle this remotely
