If you don't have vise, use a breaker bar. If you don't have a breaker bar, use a normal socket handle with a pipe over the end of it. But the vise is the best bet in terms of not slipping. |
+1 vise... The mechanic had tried a long wrench and the impact gun before deciding to use the vise. It took more time to take the wheels off than to take the BB out. Which is why I'm happy my small apartment workshop finally boasts a vise :D (this was the last thing I needed to do all my repairs - except possibly a bike stand and wheel truing stand)
