i had a good stuck seat post and i mean stuck took it to a few bike shop around 3 of them and each time the seat post was getting damaged good style twisted bent none of them could get it out of frame so got it back home sat there looking at it for an hour and ping! in my head i oiled it drill a hole right thru post for the largest screw drive i could find and put it right thru the holes and turn it one way and the other while lifting it and wow came out easy the bike was a specialized rock hopper alloy

Very entertaining and informative YBM. I was cycling up near Tuel lane tuther day and thought about passing by your workshop to say hello but it had gone past 6pm. But I guess there's always going to be another time 👍

You should put a strain gauge or industrial scale on it to see how much pulling force is required, and keep a league table! Winner gets a new seatpost 😁

When working on my Japanese cars I always loved the short, sharp crack when a bolt initially releases. Don’t forget the goggles when using the powered brush….

I’m at a last resort stage with a trek 520 steel frame aluminum post. But I’m nowhere near Yorkshire. Plus the waiver makes me nervous, though I understand it. Wondering what your thoughts may be on using gallium to “melt” the aluminum out.

Pedal threads can seize up in the crank arms too , good idea to take them out and Grease regularly.

Would you say that’s the loudest sound in cycling? Would a 60 psi tyre pop be quieter or louder than that!? I always think about my 60 psi kick scooter tyres, what if they pop? Would it result in hearing loss?

Hey Dave. I had to purchase a Bosch Gen 2 DU because, Bosch wouldn't warranty their POC after just 5600km I did manage to get a warranty (so they tell me) and the return of the replaced DU. Would you be interested in having a look at it and 'taking it to bits'? It failed with the typical 500 error code. Bearings feel fine Let me know and I'll send it to you 🖐

I gd a similar case on one of the bikes I found on scrap and could not handle it But no tools just human power I didn’t try to heat it up It was alu cannondale cad 2 and alu seatpost Think someone had to stick oversized post on it 🤣 My female friend made on this bike return trip to Edinburgh and back to Glasgow and the seat post was down to lowest position frame i would say 16inch size rather small 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
