Not sure mate but as long as he hasn't rounded anything off, should be an easy fix.

Looks like it's just a standard bolt through according to the spec so mighty force should shift it.Just wondering if its a weird Chinese cheese shaped object.

Decent allen key and a good bit of leverage and you will once again be a hero to your nephew.😁

It's like it used to be with Pc's and still is I suppose.

You become tech support for life once you sort a PC for a friend/family.😆

Ditto bikes. Bikes are more fun to repair though!

Just wondering if its a weird Chinese cheese shaped object.

I had one of those with only a hex from one end making it reverse threaded.
In the end I just drilled and tapped it then inserted a steel M10 bolt (front axle so 15mm OD) until it came loose I used one the head would then fit through after.

Brand-X £15 quid-ish but actually very decent quality .. though unless they fixed CRC website you'll need to contact them to buy (neither dropdowns or pictures were correct or even possible combinations) when I tried.. eventually customer services added it to my basket...
