I have a Liv Avail and accidentally stripped my rear thru axle putting it on an indoor trainer. I have 2 issues
1. I am unable to order a new thru axle, I have only found it online one place but it is on backorder and my local store has been unhelpful. I have attached a link to the backordered place, any other parts sites or equal replacements would be super helpful. It is a Giant 12x 142 mm with 1.5 mm thread pitch.

2. how can you get a stripped rear axle off so that I can replace it/take it off the trainer? It is a hex head and I cant get the bike wrench in to twist at all. But also I am waiting for a replacement to really try to get it off just so that I can at least still use it while on the trainer. Any advice would be super helpful, thanks!
