If it spins then it should just fall off the lever, if it's seized then it shouldn't spin. or just bend slightly a paper clip, push it down the barb gently until it grips the flat surface and pull.

It's not going to just call out right?

Ok... let have a competition
Whoever gets the olive out without damaging the lever wins a pair of used padded shorts lol

You can take remnants of the crack, if you win the shorts!

Its already detached from the bike and oil pretty much drained.
Its ready to go whenever but doesn't make sense for you to drive all the Wayne for it.

Eh... not gonna spend money on it.
Its a CX bike so maybe 1x makes more sense. I am going to convert it back to 1x and put it up for sale right around CX season.

sell it to Frank, he already loves the bike

 

[Mtbdog]

Maybe I should throw the lever in the freezer and see if the brass will shrink?

heat it up, see if that helps. This is why the only olives you wanna mess with are in a nicely stirred martini! GLWO And the olives better have pimento.

He basically said... why would he buy it when he can borrow it anytime.
He's a smart man

I hate martinis and heated martini would be even worse! Plus you burn away the alcohol!

Remember I'm a teatooter. Stick the lever in the oven for a bit, the metals should expand at different rates. I was never big on them either.

Hold a torch to it, about 90 seconds should do it. Video of my solution for proof of concept please. Center of the garage on the floor too

Wrong wrong WRONG!

The correct answer is to buy the RD, decide that you like the range but the bikes not quite right and then start a whole new build based on the wifli RD. Jeez, thought that part was obvious.

I'd take apart the easy part, some of those older motors way more than 100lbs and if I steel my buddies trailer I use a cherry picker and pull a trailer under it. Its not tough till you have to deal with stairs and you can't damage the area around it.
