I always go out and ride hard without backpedeling too much to sink the cog in.
And, I've done the removal part of it in a pinch, but it scares me. I feel I'm gonna bend, crack or even break something using the extra force needed to break a well bedded cog free. Altho, I'm sure my skinny ass couldn't do too much damage
