- End of my fight with stuck carbon saddle post. It took me two days trying to free it up. Have tried sprays like wd40 and gt85 and have hammered it for 2 hours to move it but no luck. Finally, hot boiling water and brute force gave me the leeway for first movement of the saddle post. Than more hot water and more force and I got it out. Surprisingly post has survived the massacre.
A combination of physics and violence, excellent!
It worked for me!
Million thanks guys!
I owe you a lot :D
Man the boiling water idea helped so much thank you
I envy you so much. Got the same problem here. Going to try this.
Same problem, trek 1.7, also used boiling water, i did not use the same force but maybe next time, thanks for sharing.
8 year old vid makes me wince but I like it
I wish I had that luck of being able to twist it, my seat post is carbon on carbon and aero so the seat post isn't circular its like a V shape.
Kevin Alexander same issue. Did you ever figure it out?
I have the same issue did you guys ever figure it out lol
I have a dropper seat post stuck in a carbon frame. The shop where I bought the bike can't get it out. I wish they had warned me that this could happen . Now they say I should have been removing it and living it . The bid I'd around 3 years old.
Try doing that with barely an inch of broken carbon post visible.. my case scenario
boxer?
Too late I banged the shit out a frame It had some paint chipped. I will try this next time thanks, is it just carbon that's hard to take it out?
You think this could work on an aero seatpost?
Not stuck that
Was that a carbon frame or aluminum?
I think it's carbon.
I was lucky enough to be able to remove mine (carbon seatpost inside carbon frame)
Lorand Mate how did you get it out?
If the aluminum seatpost and aluminum frame are stuck, how do you remove it?
Use pipe wrench
I'm having alot of trouble wiv my trek remedy alaminum frame and also alamanum seat post how can a free this av tryed the same fings on all thes videos but it's stuck good and a realy don't want to damidg my bike can eny one help wiv an idea not on her pls and mutch fanks if you can
did you fix it?
@@dazdeluxe6672 yes I fixed it mate and sold the bike as it gave me more troubles than its worth a spent a fortune on that bike in the end I drilled a big hole frew the pole used a bar and force and it broke the seal had to get a new seat pole
@@jamiecollins4941 thanks mate! i will be trying that
@@jamiecollins4941 i have not much experience drilling metal,do you think a battery drill will be ok? also i have just got the bottom bracket set up correctly,should i take it out to avoid metal shards getting down into it?
@@dazdeluxe6672 ull be fine with a battery drill may need charging a few times depending on quality of ur drill but will work start off with a small drill bit and work ur way up in size dont go strate in with a big drill bit you may need to go get a bit large anuf fore a pole to fit frew just take a measurement of seat pole go from there mate bnq wicks eny were like that ull get a pole and drill bit just make sure its a metal drill bit 😉 👍
USE TOOTH PASTE NOT CARBON PASTE NEXT TIME WILL NOT HAVE THAT PROBLEM
