How to get these bolts out
Posted: 03 Apr 2025, 07:02
Hello,
It all began when I tried to ride my bike, but the chain kept coming loose. The bearings in the mid-center wouldn’t stay in place; even after hammering them with a rubber mallet, they easily popped out. I replaced the mid bearings, cranks, axle, and chainring (26T), along with the rear wheel hub.
To be honest, I don’t think I handled the parts with enough care. I took it in for repairs, but they said there wasn’t much they could do and recommended a specialist. Unfortunately, there aren’t any BMX shops nearby. I managed to fix it somewhat, as it doesn’t get loose anymore, but now it cracks and gets stuck when I pedal.
Right now, I’m trying to remove the driver to see if there’s an issue with it.
Thanks so much!
