has the pin got a hex head. could try turning it to loosen up a bit. the only way i've been able to remove stubborn things like that are heat (watch for rubber melting) using a blow torch/small butane torch/heat gun/steaming hot water!! the idea is the metal expands around the pin making it easier to remove.

hope that helps
