Hello lovely people
I have a single speed built on the Tokyo Fixed frame which was purchased new around 3 years ago (as in the frame only).
Sadly after 3 years of riding and me not servicing the bike, the seat post has rusted inside the frame and can't be taken out manually. The guy at my local bike shop suggested removing it using high temperature, however apparently this will definitely damage the paint...
Any ideas/suggestions please? I'm looking to sell the bike to my mate but I realise that with the post stuck in it's virtually worthless.
Thanks in advance.
Zofia
