If its got the sort of prongs im thinking of then Its may be very simliar to a bastard cam i had to take off at work, Im the end i got a adjustable spanner and ground the ends down stuck it in a vice and slapped the offending cam on the top and twisted

The Atom on my Skyways was a fooker to get off. Took it to my local bike shop and they whacked it in a vice. Still wasn't easy though.
