Hello (again....)

So, previously owner of my Def 110 (my sister, soon to be disowned), took her landy to some halfwit that changed the rear disks and used an airgun. Despite heating up the bolts with my welding gear, and using a medium sized bar to take them off, I broke every fekin bolt. I almost wept. So, have found it hard to find rear hub replacements, is it worth trying to get the threads out or should I just bite the bullet and buy a new one. As my kindly neighbour said "Breaking two was unlucky, breaking all five means you've been a bit of a dick". Thats exactly what I didn't want to hear. I'll need to wait until the hub has been extracted from his rectum before I start removing the broken studs.

So, in summary, buy a new one, fix the old one..... Any recommendation on a supplier?

Cheers

you could try a local machine or engineering place they should be able to get them out with out damaging the threads.
 
Thanks for the site info folk!

SLob - I broke the bolts that fasten the brake disk onto the hub. They go from the top surface of the brake disk on to the rear of the hub via 5 collared bolts.
