Smashing the bearing could damage the bush it's sitting in, meaning you'd need a new hub as well. If you're in London I know a place that could probably remove it. If not, google an engineer close to you and give them a phone, they might be able to help.

You could try using a masonry anchor, M10 probably, put it in, tighten it up and yank.

Insert a flat head screwdriver through one bearing and rest the tip on the other bearing's outer race (inside the hub), tap gently, moving round the bearing to keep it even.

Thinking about it, you might not be able to get to the outside race from the inside of the hub, in which case you'll just have to sacrifice one of the bearings. I'm sure it'll be useable after knocking it out with the inner race, but for about £2.50 you might as well replace it with a nice new one.

I found a good way of seating the new bearings without resorting to a mallet:

Get two big washers that fit over the axle and reach the outside of the bearing casing (you don't want to be pressing on the inside part) and just tighten the bearings into place with track nuts.

I'm pushing the envelope of what's sartorially permitted when trying on a suit in one's drawing room, innit.

SOLD, to the man in the top hat.

I reckon it would go pretty well with that Cougar, maybe I could have the lining altered to neon yellow for consistency. I'll talk to my tailor.

:/

I've changed it on the flyer I made to be handed out during the Exchanging Places event, which I hope will generate most of the interest for the seminars. I'll email the person concerned and ask if they can alter the website though.

The initial fruits of our labours ^^

Black blue with a white chalk stripe and royal blue lining.

Lunchy bump.

Aw shucks. Thanks x

I bought this for Halloween but I never wear a suit. It's so nice it'd be a shame to let it languish in my wardrobe.

100% pure new wool (531c) from Stanley Ley of Fleet Street, the legal outfitters. It's probably been worn by a barrister at some point, though not very much as it still has the spare buttons in a bag in the pocket. For a double breasted suit it's surprisingly fitted and un-boxy. Feel free to come round for a fitting, though I'm not measuring you up.

I'd like a bit less than I paid for it, which was already a steal.

I'll chuck in the city boy shirt for free.

Everyone's out at the Sainsburys.

Jacob, scroll up and read five posts above yours, you lazy bastard.

lolz. I thought this was a total winner.

Trying to get my mate interested in the minihulk...

Ah I see, it is right on the hipster highway, no end of people zipping across.

Might come along to this, sounds like a good idea.

Is Clerkenwell Road / Farringdon Road really a bad junction? It's just standard traffic lights at a cross roads...

Don't worry, the taggy cats are hard at work, sifting though peoples' flickr holiday snaps...
I assumed the St Mary's one, couldn't be bothered going down there to find out though... no cyclist statue on street view.

Xander crossing Euston Road around lunch time. You were concentrating.

Yup.
