Well, I'm not so sure Mike. I removed the old one with a bearing separator, much like the "cheap" ones sold by Icetoolz, etc., and ended up damaging the chrome on the old one. I'm not so worried about damaging the race as I am damaging the land or seat by pounding on it one side then the other. I tend to obsess too much about this stuff, though.
