Problems removing front wheel/axel
I just bought a F2.. Bike is all dark except for the wheels which are white. I wanted to take the wheels off and get them painted black to match the bike. Well I can't get the front axel bolt off. I pulled the clamp bolts... brakes. I have put some serious force onto the bolt.. and it won't budge.. but rather the bolt head is deforming. I have used some penatrayting catalyst... and no luck.. The bike has relatively new tires so it had to of been removed sometime. They obviously did not torque it.. i dunno..

RE: Problems removing front wheel/axel
If you're talking about the bolt that goes into the end of the axel to hold it on there make sure that the axel isn't spinning while you're trying to loosen the bolt. It took this idiot about 15minutes before realizing that was what was happening when I tried removing the rear tire for the first time. Make sure you're turning it the correct way too.
