Stronglight Crank Puller in the Los Angeles Area?

Hey Guys,

I'm working on stripping down an old italvega for paint and am now running into the issue of how to get off the stronglight 93s on there. Does anyone know a shop in or around LA that would have the right puller? I'm planning on calling up the bike kitchen and bikerowave tonight when they open, other than that I'm kind of at a loss. Or are there any members that wouldn't mind letting me swing by and use theirs?

You can buy a J. A. Stein 23mm crankpuller online from Velo-Orange for $55. Pricey, but if you are going to keep the crankset it is probably worth it.

Which would mean Jones Bicycles (Long Beach) or Montrose Bikes in La Caņada. Jones has been around for 100 years, Montrose for almost 60. Probably a bit of a drive to either one.
