Happened on my red one so a while ago, sure I used extension bar and impact driver, rotated bolt and kept lubing, was a right ba@#%&red to get out. You have my sympathy.

I cleaned them up real good for the picture

@oldman again was like that when I bought it I greased them when I got the bike I was using it as an off-road bike so I wasn’t bothered about pitting

The yoke looks mint irl but it doesn’t show through on the camera it’s a wrinkle black paint which will be my accent paint for the bike and of course it had to be gold rims the gold is the faded vintage colour that I like -
