16mm fixing bolt paired with standard size (22mm) removal threads

one fringe benefit of a 16mm fixing bolt is that it makes it difficult for someone to steal the machine's crankset

you are going at things very nicely

shall look forward to following the progress as matters move forward

I have removed the bolts today This is the socket I used, it doesn't look like a thin-walled though, does it? But it worked just fine.

16mm socket

Owning a proper tool would be convinient, but I am a bit surprised that Zeus crank bolts are not the same as Campy ones. I didn't know that they require a 16mm socket/tool.
