here’s your options

1. freeze it, steel doesn’t shrink, but aluminum does, so may be easier to get off

2. get a drill bit or rod almost the exact size of the ID of the bearing to be easier to get off

3. use pliers, but be very careful, more of a last resort

4. If you don’t care about the bearing and none of the above work and you’re hulk smash angry, then grab a pair of vice grips and smash the bearing off… Only done this once lol

Right on the front page of this section there’s a number of posts about removing bearings. A wealth of info in them. Check them out.

Here’s a nice, new fresh one with some good info.
