Hi all, 
Quick question, 
Just bought some new spike's,  for my running shoes, (NB),
 but I couldn't remove some of the old one's.?

Any tips?

Probably rusted in, spray with WD40 and leave for a while, might work.

Thanks for that,.
Just checked out you tube, there gave me the answer, 
I will use wd40 along with a saw , and a screw driver, 
Will let you know tomorrow.
Cheers

As a preventative measure I'm aware of various products that people use in the spike hole to prevent rusting and seized spikes, including Vaseline - although my favourite is lithium grease (mainly because that's what I have handy for various bicycle applications).  A little dab in each hole after cleaning, I've never had any problems for a few XC seasons now.

All removed, and now all holes are greased and replaced with nice new ones.
Now I am back on track.
