I have a set of those, very good bit of kit

Also to add the nut needs to be soaked in penetrating oil - maybe for a day or two

Instead of molegrips, use a small stilson.

However, as everybody says apply some heat and penetrating oil first and be prepared for it to break off and require drilling out.

Carefull with the heat as your calliper is ally
Also if it snaps off at the head ( like the bolts do ) it will make it harder to remove if heat has been applied & will almost certainly need helicoil .

Are we talking Brembo ( gold ) front inside or out
Or rear ?

Saw the top of the nipple off and then saw a line down the middle to convert to a screwdriver fitting. You can then use a screwdriver that can take a small spanner behind the handle and apply downward pressure as well as applying torque.

Always hammer inward.

Something that's very tight cannot get tighter. So hit it in. Also if you heat up cool Down as different expansion rates will aid to break grip on threads.
