NC30 Fork strip
Looking for advice, started stripping the forks on my NC30,now at the stage where i need to remove the bottom damper rod bolt, 6mm Snap on allen key socket, 12" breaker bar and all thats happening is i can feel the allen key beginning to twist, i ckecked the torque setting in the manual and it states 20nm, has this thing grown into the alloy? any tips as to best way to undo it?

Re: NC30 Fork strip
It screws into the damper tube inside the fork tube. Quite often the damper tube rotates with the bolt. An impact gun usually proves successful or a bar inserted into the fork tube that locks onto the damper tube can be used to stop it rotating.
