Default Small Gear-Puller?

Is there a _small_ gear puller, suitable for pulling a half inch diameter
linear brake off a bike? Hammering on it would damage its support.
I need something to pull on the outer edge while pushing on the center
shaft, to avoid it.

It's not so much that great force is required but that it be restricted
to the brake component in question.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.


A bolt a wing nut and some wire, you may have to grind the bolt thin
where it presses upon the shaft, the wire wraps around the ears of the
wing nut and the gear.
