[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 1188175, member: 17212"] Yes it is pressed on. You can remove it yourself by clamping the stem, up-side-down in a vise. Use aluminum jaws to prevent damage to the stem. Then take a chisel and carefully tap around the race between the race and bottom triple clamp. Be careful not to dig into the aluminum triple clamp. The race will start to move away from its seated position and then you will be able to use a punch to drive it off of its seat. When you install the new race. Use a piece of pipe just slightly larger in diameter than the stem and a BFH to drive the new race down into position. Make sure the pipe does not hit the bearing cage as it will damage the cage. If the pipe hits the cage, grind the pipe so it only touches the race. Just my $ .02 [/QUOTE]
