stripped bolt
I dont know how it happened, but today when I was tuning my front derailleur, when I went to unscrew the bolt that holds the cable, I realized that it was just spinning endlessly and stripped out. I managed to pull the cable out and remove it from the bike. Can I just replace the bolt and nut or am I looking at replacing the whole derailleur? Thank you.
also, it is ultegra 10spd.

my anchor bolt, #3, is stripped to the nut on the other side. I didn't know if it is threaded through the derailleur itself, but if it isn't, all I will have to do is replace that. However, if it is stripped through the body, then I will need to replace it. There is no way I can tell until I pull out the old bolt.
