How do I remove a stuck bearing and axel if they are stuck on the same side and the hex key is in the YoYo? Also what size axle does the magic YoYo skyva And yoyofactory replay pro have?
Thank you

You can remove the bearing with a bearing extractor, they have a hole in them so you don’t need to remove the axle first.
You cannot easily remove the axle from the replay pro, it’s not designed for it. You’d need to pop off the plastic cap on that side, and it might crack.
For regular grub screw style axle you can use pliers with a bit of heavy rubber or cloth wrapped around the axle.
Ok, thank you for the help
Before you try the above good advice, put the half with the axle inside a cloth and stick it in the freezer for 15 minutes. I don’t understand the physics of it but coldness makes it easier to loosen things up that are really stuck. I found that advice right here when I had a yoyo I could not get apart. However it works, it works.
Ok thank you, I will probably get looked at like a weirdo by my family but I’ll try it:joy:
I agree with @ChrisFrancz placing things in colder temps causes them to contract. It does work.
Ok I’ll give it a try, thank you for all the advice I really appreciate it
