A simple fix really, screw the dustcap back on and skip to unscrewing the inner bolt instead.

Some people choose to remove the dustcap to prevent theft as all you need to remove a gxp crankset is a single hex key.
Yes, the dust cap came off with the bolt. That would prevent the crank arm from sliding off the spindle? So if I keep the dust cap on and only take off the crank arm bolt it will slide off?
