Quite well. Took the bike to my LBS, he braced the frame with wood, used a bigger hammer than I did, and banged the bearing out. He then faced the shell a little where it was messed up, and only charged me $15.
The bearing was fine, so I installed it and the other one, with loctite, and the bike is all back together now. I haven't ridden it yet, but I'll see tomorrow.
