AS you can see in the third pic they are in a fucking awful state. ~
To be fair, the bike was new in 2003 and since then I've ridden it in the worst of the salt that many British winters can throw at you for years, as well as some of the best summers.
Its 2025 now and this is as the first time in 22 years that these studs have been undone.
So wtf did I expect...
Anyway, much browsing of youtube for the best ways to remove badly corroded studs incoming.
I don't really want to grind them off and drill them but I fear this is how some of them will end up.

Any good helpful suggestions welcome...
