New bike build.
I've received my new bike in the post and it was not built so I decided to build it myself. Upon assembling it I got to the front wheel. Their was plastic shielding on the disc break that you had to screw off, i snapped it off and now there's a piece of plastic left inside the axle of the front wheel. On the other end of the axle i screwed the shield off, but not the opposite end. It must be removed as a pin goes through the axle. Anyone any ideas how to remove this? Pictures attached below

With most lights, though, this approach will quickly lead to your light flapping loosely while pointing mostly at your front wheel.

Have you tried tapping it out with an old quick release squewer. If its placeic this shouldn't damage anything axel wise.
