PT with 15mm axle - no hex broaching or flats for wrenches?

Just got my powertap hub upgraded from the older 12mm, to the newer 15mm axle.

I'm scratching my head over how to remove the freehub/axle since it apparently doesn't have the hex wrench broaching like the previous version. Matter of fact I don't see any flats for cone wrenches either...

Thanks in advance

ps. everything is fine with the hub right now, just want to know how to maintain it since the grease doesn't last long in the wet...

Sorry, I just found and Read TFM.

It says use a sharp tug... hmmmmm


EDIT: OMG... that's one crazy design. I hope it's sturdy.
