I've got a old steel tourer with a very stuck seatpost. I've had success dissolving alloy seatposts out with caustic soda in the past but I'd rather not do it this time. The seatpost isn't anything fancy or fluted. What do you guys reckon to just sawing the top of the seatpost off and using one of these clamps designed for integrated seatposts on the bit left behind? Looks like I should be able to get enough adjustment out of one since the seatpost is currently only a couple of cm too low
