I got a 5mm hex socket, but the bolt head seems to want to strip. I don't have a grinder to cut a slot in it... not sure what to do next.

You appear not to need them for you current job but it's a good excuse to remind folks, normal Allan keys are useless unless the bolt is not very tight, they are too springy and difficult to keep straight and make it easy to wreck the bolt head.



Anyone working on these bikes should have a set of these, they go on you socket set. You can buy them for less than $20, Only use METRIC
