I have a dm2, and it comes with 2 bearings. One is smaller one and the other is bigger. My problem is, I cant get the initial small one out. Does anyone that has a dm2 know how to get the little one off the yoyo? ???

Try pliers wigle it out if that doesnt work try thr string trick  
first wrap a old string around the axle then screw the yoyo back together  
then unscrew your yoyo and the bearing should be stuck on the other side  
pull it off with the string under the bearing ;D

or you could find a drill bit that fits the inner circle just right then wiggle. if its on the wrong side of the yoyo chuck the yoyo in a drill and unscrew LEFT.

Like Staten Island Man said. Here’s the basic idea:
