Went to replace the rear mech and hanger on my BMC yesterday having noticed a bend in it after getting it out of storage at work.... only the damn star-headed microscopic screws holding the hanger in place are impossible to loosen.
It's almost like they were machine fitted and with a considerable amount of force. I honestly don't know how it's possible to get enough force through a 3mm screwdriver without fucking the frame and/or the screws and/or my hand in the process.
Anyone got any clever ideas?
