email Clarks and ask them!!!

So what bike shop is it?

Use an old coping saw blade, slide in with teeth pointing towards you, then gently pull out and hopefully with half a key. Did this a few times with broken abloy keys when I worked for a utilities company, never told them how I did it though!!!

Rowland Hill in Kidderminster, even mick f would never get up it!!

New rim needed! Anything else is just a bodge job.
