Has anyone managed to remove the gxp convertors from a Hope BB without wrecking their knuckles or bb ? reason being im changing to a Shimano XT chainset and would rather like to keep the bb as its new and do away with the gxp side of things , save buying a new bb as well

Yep, from memory I pressed them from the inside out

I need a set and will buy them off you if you get them out in one piece!

+1 small notch, in the past. Hope should've added one but there you go.
