I'm trying to remove the bottom bracket of my Storck Scenario, roughly late 90's, early 2000s. All guides on BB removal seem to start without a spindle in the BB, and all crank removal guides seem to stop at taking the cranks of the spindle. How do I get the spindle out? Moderate tapping with a hammer did absolutely nothing. Bearings will be replaced if I get them out. This is what it looks now:

That’s weird. What does it look like on the other side?
This looks just like the press fit bearings on Klien/Gary Fisher from this era. Fit a crank bolt and wail on it with a big hammer, with someone supporting the frame from the other side. Some press fit frames can be retapped to BSA id the dimensions are correct
