A bike I bought from the forum (here) had one of these little buggers in the saddle clamp bolt. I got it out one time with a knife and an extra pair of hands after I bought a new Brooks (yeh good idea, Sam). Anyway last night my saddle was stolen from outside the pub I work at. Checked the CCTV and it took these two guys 6 minutes taking it in turns to get the saddle off. Now I don't think many other methods could withstand the same treatment - let alone 6 minutes worth - so I'm going to try and get hold of some more of them for my new Brooks (yeh another good idea, Sam).
Just so you know.
