I am mega peed off! I have skated on some chewing gum and my beautiful brand new g rods are currently minty fresh and sticky.
Does any one have any Kim -and -Aggie- style tips for removing chewing gum from wheels!

take the bearings off and put them in the freezer overnight. it makes the gum freeze then you can chip it off. it's the only real way to get gum off of stuff.

I concur.
You can probs pick it off when it's frozen. with some kind of sharp tool.

Thanks, I'll try freezing my wheel when I get back from practice tonight. Fingers crossed, or I will explode into a full-blown tantrum!
