Me and My dad used a huge vice attached to a bench, with one of us at each end of the bike giving it some welly until it came loose.
I would like to add this was with a mountain bike

Platini + Seat Post + LPG + Diesel = one film I never want to watch. Seriously, beyond two girls, one cup.
But it does reveal that both Andy.W and Plats have daughters, or an interest in, as reverend goat boy would have said 'the fillies'...

Fucking hell Andy, you're in the club, yessir...
It's "Fucking hell, Andy, etc".
Get a grip on your punctuation, guy. Use a vice if necessary.

I went to adjust my seatpost today and it is completely and utterly stuck, I even hit it with a hefty hammer that I borrowed from some guys that were doing some building work and it did not budge after a few meaty whacks. The position is actually ok, I was only going to move it up 5mm anyway so it's not that big a problem. The only way I could think of ever actually getting it out should I need to would be to drill through it and stick a metal pole through and twist, this is obviously a bit drastic if there may be another less destructive way of getting it to move, any suggestions?
- Strip out the bottom bracket
- Put the frame upside down
- Pour in 1/2 litre of coca cola (full fat, regular stuff)
- Leave for a day or two
- Drain the coke out of the frame (put it the right way up)
- Pull the seat post out (it will still be tight, but it won't be bonded anymore)
- Strip out the bottom bracket

I was using Manx punctuation to a fellow Manxman, commas are at a premium because of the wind.

Commas are two-a-penny, whatever the weather. Semicolons are where the smart money's being invested.

Just to let you know I'm really just jealous that I haven't had the oppurtunity to tell anyone to 'Use The Fucking Search' yet, I feel it to be somewhat of a rite of passage on the forum and that somehow it will garner the respect of my e-peers.

I am not sure what any of that means, it's like I am inside my skull looking out when I see language like that, divorced from it all, I kind of like that.

Ive applied WD-40 to a seatpost periodically over a period of a couple days on an old Schwinn frame, worked for me.

Drier, dear, a dryer is a machine designed to remove moisture from fabric.
