Sram Red Non-Drive Bolt Problem
#1
So I attempted to remove this crankset, but the bolt that attaches the non-drive crank arm to the spindle did not budge. Instead, two other bolts that seem to work in conjunction with the one I wanted to loosen have come out.

Anybody have a suggestion on my next course of action?

looks like it should pop off to me, gently tap with a rubber mallet and the arm should pop off, grease the spline before reassembly so it comes off easier next time
