Is it possible he has a contraption that goes inside the seatpost and 'hooks' on to the lower end while pushing on the top of the seat tube? I'd bet that moving a stuck seatpost a few mm is probably enough to make the rest an easy job.
Or is he able to get seatposts out in one piece and leave both the frame and the seatpost in a useable state?
Does anyone know how the hell he actually gets the seatposts out?
I've actually given up on frames before because of stuck seatposts, and then when they do come out they're absolutely fucked? When he pulls them out they are still mint condition.
I also can't think of anything more stressful than removing stuck seatposts for a living. I've done about 3 in my entire life and almost lost my shit with everyone and everything...
