What is the proper way to remove the sealed bearings in ksyriums??
I have the little $4 puller,

and tried punching it from the opposite end, but it ain't budging. Help!

Thanks. Where can one buy that bearing press kit (Bearing press kit M40120 for Carbones) in North America??

I've had no problem at all, tapping the bearings out with a large screwdriver, inserted from the opposite side. Tap a several locations near the OD. They will come out. There is no special tool that will really do any better job.

That's pretty much what I've been trying to do. No luck on either bearing. Will try a few more times and then give in and ask the LBS...
