You don't need a special puller.

Just remove the set screw holding the pad ot the wheel, remove the pad, then remove the 19mm nut holding the wheel on. Then all you have to do is wiggle it back and forth while pulling out/up and it will pop free. No special tools needed.

I suppose if you are a dee dee dee you could injure yourself, but a little common sense (which isn't so common i hear) and you won't have your face in the way

Lightly tap the splines with a brass hammer while wiggling it back and fourth.
