Well I was suprised but went to change my front tyre and undone the axle
on my 36 r's and the axle would not come out.
I called Leisure Lakes and they called MOJO and apparantly its a common
problem as the axle is Steel and the forks are Aluminium and the two
surfaces stick?
They told me that I had to get a piece of wood and hit it with a Hammer/Mallet
and knock it out.
And yes got the Axle out but it seemed to not stick to lower fork but stuck to
the inside of the hub, as there was lwhat looked like surface rust on the Axle.
I washed off and then oiled up all surfaces and put the Axle back
Never taken the front wheel off being I put it into in the back of the Ford Galaxy.
Well guys just make sure to keep the Axle well lubed at all times.
