suspension linkage removing
Hi there, guys, need little of help here.
Disassembled my bike, but stuck with the damn thing. http://www.imagecross.com/a/image-hosti ... 50link.jpg
Any tips how to remove bolt and then linkage from frame? Bolt stuck inside REALLY hard and wont pull out, however, it rotates freely enough.
P.S. I'm able to remove the bastard with brute (but gentle) force, but I wonder will I break something this way?

Application of heat and release oil. If that doesn't work then cut both ends of the bolt off and smash it out with a drift holding it in a vice.

G clamp, with an oversize socket on the head of the bolt, this allows the bolt to slide out inside the socket.
