I had a customer bring a wheel in with all the sprocket bolts broken. They were going to try to drill them out which most likely would have resulted in a ruined wheel. Instead I tig welded the bolts up past the surface of the hub, dropped a nut on there and welded them up.
I welded all five and then sprayed penetrating lube on them. Next fire up your torch and heat the hub until your lube is boiling and bubbling!

Impressive fix, almost as impressive as some kook managing to shear all five bolts off . . . wtf??
fancy! Make sure those suckers are tight? hahaha
the guy tried taking them off with an air impact.....going the wrong direction...5 times!
