rear wheel siezed on. help would be appreciated.
Rear wheel seems to be siezed on. And the spacer for that matter. Any tips on getting the bugger off? Thanks

Rubber mallet...or block of wood and a lump hammer...basically, it's gonna need a good wopping...when you do get it off, use copper grease when you put it back on...

Re: rear wheel siezed on. help would be appreciated.
has the wheel been powder coated ? if so get a dremel on the inner surface to ensure it does not happen again,
you need to get brutal, you can prise it too slowly, but you will chip paint use the 4 nuts you can just make out to get a leverage between and the wheel.

It has been powdercoated and yet i will get at it with a dremel when its of. Gave it a good bashing and still no movement so will try to lever it off next time i am at it. Like you said.

Assuming it is up on aa ABBA stand so it is not going to fall over, get a mate to 'steady' (or sit on) the bike then sort of sitting on the floor use the heel/sole of your foot and get all medievil on the back wheel
(remember to wear shoes)
.
Aim your kicks as far out as possible (tyre/rim) to maximise the leverage and if you have had your weetabix you should be able to break the 'sticktion' and then the thing should just fall off
