The 3 or 4 that I've done haven't been a problem to get off. Sometimes it will come off in one piece just by pulling on them a little. If it's really brittle I would cut the rubber belt at the bottom of the hub. That would be the place where the dial is open. You may need to gently pry the belt from the hub but it a friction fit and wasn't glued on. Chances are it won't give you a fight.
