One of the rear mudguard eyelets (just above the rear dropout on the seatstay) on my carbon frame is spinning. The previous owner used crappy bolts which clearly seized into the thread and trying to extract it has made the thread itself spin in the frame. The corroded bolt is still there.
I think the job is to drill it out and install a new rivnut. I am no stranger to building bikes and can do most jobs but this might be one to contract out (esp as the seatstay is relatively thin).
Could anyone recommend a workshop that could handle that sort of thing in London (south east even better)?
Thank you in advance!
