I am about to replace the original front rotors on my 1965 S1.5 and see that the lip of the front hub is curved and would likely not permit a hub puller to grip it there. What have you used successfully? I realize that the hub may come off with mild persuasion with a rubber mallet, but given its age, it may be more challenging.

Hi I'm assuming you are removing the front brake discs from the hubs , I did mine recently , and once the castellated nut is undone they freely come off.
Sorry if I have not understood what your removing.

Steve, yes, front hubs. Will hope mine come off as yours did. Thank you.
