I read on here sometime last year that soaking it with PB blaster works pretty well, as well as dishsoap. Once it gets a good soak on, wiggling in and out will eventually pop them out.

If you're talking about the weight inside the bar. I took the handle bar off and then screwed in some bolt that I didn't care if I messed the head up on. Put a little dish soap in there and then pulled on it. It takes a little work but it'll come out.
