Ah
Well, have been trying to drill out the effing bestered bottle cage bolt to not much success, mainly as a tap broke off in the sheared bolt and the tap is made of undrillium despite three new metal bits worn out trying
Now looking at some kind of micro fileSaw to nip into the hole that took me three evenings to achieve, so as to make a slot I can put a flat headed screwdriver into to turn out the debris
The thread is ruined so that’ll be a glue in or I might try one of those inserts I can’t remember the name of that you push in and compress
Otherwise am waiting to source a bb, which is proving a challenge (but why I don’t know) and the the drivetrain bits
Hopefully next month might- might - see it ready for a shakedown ride :)
