If its the miche primato that you have, I used a park freewheel remover on mine and it worked perfectly.

That's the Campag pattern one, so it is. I use the Cyclo Campag tool and it's the same but cheaper and nastier.

no they won't if you tightened them properly in the first place...

well, the Italian threaded version probably actually does.
