I've a diatech Dirty Finger brake lever, and it seems that the bolt on the clamp has been screwed in way too far, and now the bolt's stuck and won't budge. I've tried WD40 and everything and it still won't move.

Any idea on how to get the bolt out?

Haha, managed to get it out using the hair dryer to heat the bolt and then a hell of a lot of man power to turn it.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
