Holy hell, why in the hell do I need vice grips to get these off.
Broke enough spokes to have to do this shit and regardless of the egregious amount of lube I chucked in there I could not find purchase to get them off without vice-grips.
Shoulda bought the i9's and waited the 38 weeks.
(you probably did) did you try just inserting the tip of the axle in the endcap and prying it out that way? I have 6 Hope hubs and haven't needed anything as rough trade as vise grips yet.
Looking for a pun about vice, a strong grip, and remembering to try inserting the appropriate shaft but I'm shooting blanks.
