I use the cheap bearing pullers from Harbor Freight. They are plenty strong for getting the bearing off the crank.

I have also used them for a number of other tasks, making them an even better bargain.

Stick it in the freezer for a few hours, then into a 250 degree oven. The bearing should slip right off.
