Well I've tried everything (available to me) to remove my cracked seat post from the seat tube. I’ve got my mole clamps and oiled that thing to within an inch of its life but it refuses to move. Neither up nor down nor sideways it just stays there in defiance of my tyrannous riding regime. I know your thinking maybe the crack has something to do with it but that shouldn’t effect its removal because its right at the top. So forumers any suggestions to get the fucker out?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
