well the back wheel is kinda frozen in place on the frame.... havent tried a sledge hammer yet, but im getting close to it. i took the axle bolt off of one side but the other side didnt have one. it had a hole through it like it used to have a cotter pin or something. also once i take the front forks off what is the best way to clean the shocks, they seem to stick. so i guess the first step after i have everything stripped off is to sand it down and get to painting? any tips?
