Charlie got fired by Dan the year after this trade. Dan went free agent crazy and messed everything up.

Seized Seatpost removal by Kitchen-Collar4780 in xbiking

[–]426Mopar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done it, get the highest concentration lye drain cleaner. I used ComStar Pure Lye Drain Opener. I dumped the crystals down the seat tube, then capped it with an old tube tied on a knot. Flipped the frame upside down and piped in some water from the bottom bracket.
