have you undone the 4 alen bolts on the bottom of the forks

[matt1827]

yeh two on each fork is it.done that.

and the bitch about it is i was booked in to have my tyres changed 2morow hence taken the front wheel off

[clemsta]

use a blow torch, heat the lower fork around the bolt on the thread side then use a cold chisel and a hammer to loosen the bolt, put the chisel on the outside of the bolt head and tap it round anticlockwise.
if that doesn't work you could try to spread the fork with a small chisel where the pinchbolts hold it.

Hope this helps
