Just went to undo one of the bolts on my hone cranks and it rounded completely?
Anyone got any ideas?

hammer a screw driver or slightly larger torx tool into the end if you can.And then you can usually turn it
If you can get to part of it, cut a small slot with a hacksaw and try to tap it round.
Failing that drill it out!!

Are you talking about one of the non-drive side pinch bolts? Tap a slightly oversized Torx bit into it. Cross fingers.

put a decent bolt in the other hole and crank it up to loosn off the rounded one then do the torx trick as above
