I have a vice but I much prefer a long pull handle or in this case a push handle. It's nothing more than a long handle with a 1/2" square stub a socket fits on. My freewheel tool has the matching square hole to fit it. I just pump up the tire and place it upright with the tire sitting on the garage floor and a strong wall. Then just push down on the pull handle and the freewheel will loosen up easily as your using your body weight. If it's really stuck you can stand on the wrench handle!
