Heat the fucker in an oven for a bit first.
Thanks!!! Does this come from personal experience battling with a non-split crown race?
I left mine sat in a cup of boiling water for a few mins
Yep. Had one that really tight, even with the correct tool and bashy-bashy it wasn't having it.
Heated the fucker up and it went right on.
Could also consider making the steerer cold...bowl full of ice water maybe.
