.....the stuff holding the thing is not shifted enough.....Problem is I can't do anything to that, one of the bolt on the fork bottom is dead...So I can't move the thing in the stuff.

Sorry Antoine, far too technical for me mate

Believe it or not I know what you mean!

I had a stuck thingy in the bottom of the wotsit on one of my bits. Try a good soaking of WD40 and then try using a hammer and chisel to shift the hex-headed clamp bolt. (hit the flat end of the chisel with the heavy bit of the hammer)
If that doesn't work try heating the bottom of the fork leg with a blowtorch (if you can't get the bike in the oven) and as its alloy it should free up the bolt and voila ( like a cello but smaller)

Bon chance, mon ami
