I've used a mallet and allen key end to tap the lobe out before, but ideally get someone to hold the crankarm.

I’ve never had them stuck before. No special locking mechanism. I would try doing it with the pedal in but without the washer, hitting the centre and less likely to damage the paint/carbon/lobe.

Anyone had any experienced with the lobe Zed crankset?
Currently want to switch from 172.5 to 170 but cannot get the larger lobe internally from crankset out. Looks like there is a lot of grit and muc caused thing the to be a little stuck.
Is there a release agent or just brut force will work? Just worried about damaging the crankset.
