Recently got a gravel bike and I sadly quickly got a puncture. First geared bike I've had in years, and I am completely stuck just trying to get the rear wheel out. I know how to change a tire, if I just get that wheel out..

It comes with a little tool that seems to be the only thing that fits, and it would make sense to ise that to get the axle free. But it just serms like an ungodly amount of force that I have to use and still nothing has budged. Am I missing something here???

Thought a thru axle was just supposed to be undone with a hex key?

It's a scott speedster gravel 30 if that helps any
