Thank you for the video. Very knowledgeable. I've already removed my seat and it's soaking in P.B. blaster. Next step is to let it soak. WD 40 was useless. I spayed P.B. blaster in the aluminum seat post tube and turned my Schwinn Sidewinder SR Suntour high ten upside down capping the top of the seat post so no oil passes onto my floor. Thanks again for your knowledge. It helped me. Have a wonderful Sunday.
@alloutbikes It sat 5 years in the garage. I went to adjust the seat the clamp was welded. I used channel locks to spread the clamp and used a hammer to remove it. I also used a screwdriver and hammer to split the down post so I could spry WD40 it wasn't worth even trying. I'm using your method. My Schwinn Sidewinder SR Suntour High Ten is aluminum, with Suntour front coils to absorb the rough terrains, Cranks are aluminum, and Kickstand is aluminum. The seat post is aluminum, and the brakes are aluminum. I purchased a New stock, Schwinn water bottle holder. It's off-road and mountain bike and she fast due to light weight. The Sidewinder came out in 1981 my Sidewinder is a 1985. I cannot find any helpful information on the bike other than low retail is 500 high retail is 1500. I will not part with it because I bought it from a married couple for 30.00 dollars.
PB is an obvious suggestion but man the Vice "trick" is brilliant! Talk about thinking outside the box! This is gonna be interesting, if all else fails, on a GT Talera Mountain bike. *Love* the Blammo & all the late 80's to mid 00's HAROs - That thing must weigh 55lbs lol I still have ALL my bikes but my 1st BMX Bike ever was a HARO - a 92 or 93 Group 1 RS4 (Yeah try finding anything about that. RS4 not RS3 or RS2 or...). It's like a 22 inch top tube & I don't think I'll be growing into it unless there's a medical procedure or a horrible accident. & LOL @ the C&C Comments.. Just think: in another universe, You have a little Jew who can barely write his name but makes a very small fortune off your technical expertise & labor by making TH-cam videos. *BUT* you get to play in his Dad's nice big backyard - so ooHooYeahhh! looooool
Got the seatpost out of my 2015 On One Inbred. Had it soaked for a couple of weeks before, from the 'inside', bike sitting upside-down and bottom bracket removed.
Thanks for the video. As you said in another comment both the post ans the frame ar steel. Kepe in .ind people this will probably not work when an aluminium post is truly stuck in a steel frame. Those to metals become as if welded together. There are other videos for that
Thanks for the reply. I've got an aluminium post stuck in a genesis steel frame. No bike shop wanted to touch it. Gave it to an actual smith(!) and they couldn't get it unstuck, so they sawed it off and drilled in the tube, but just a little. So now I'm in a worse position 😅 Meaning I can't even try your method now lol. Tried to get caustic soda but it went illegal in my country a few months ago. I think ill put the project on hold for a while.
@@smm482I saw a video where the guy had a hacksaw blade with a guard so it couldn’t cut deep enough to damage the frame. He cut two slots in the post so he could knock it inwards.
i have a redline proline pro XL 2022 it came with 44t /16 but i was thinking changing it to 48t/16 for long ride going with the traffic and racing to i am 49yr old
If it moves a little bit. Add some penetrating oil and keep working it out. Once out clean the post with steel wool.(only the lower section). And be sure to clean out the seat tube(in the frame). After you do all of that grease the inside of the seat tube and grease the seatpost(lower part) insert the post and you should be good. Goodluck 👍
It doesn't mater. It's a round tube stuck in another round tube. It's the most common shape in the bike industry. If your talking about the seatpost clamp it doesn't affect the removal of the post. It was also the only stuck seatpost in my store. If I missed the mark please clarify. I do want to answer any questions you have.👍
What I do is I take the bike crank off then I turn the bike up side down and inside where the crank goes there's a hole inside I make sure the post hole is covered first then I poor vinegar from the crank hole and then I poor bake soda powder and I'll let it seat for a day that will take rust from the inside frame then turn bike up again and poor some lubricant oil and start pulling post out with force it work everytime for me
I have used vinegar with some success. What I found is if you don't rinse it out really good and then use penetrating oil immediately afterwards it starts to rust immediately. I have never tried using baking soda with it.
Not exactly super easy as you claim.After the frame turns,you can put the bike down and use a long seat post across the hole,you bolted back and applying wd40 turn the post out of the frame because as you know the rust inside eats up a lot of oil as you turn the post back and forth .and when the post is out the post looks almost like you never put any oil inside.
Good job dad. The best part was that you were working with your son. Cherish those times before he moves away. ❤️❤️
My daughter came home two minutes after I had got the job done alone 🤣

What grit (or grits) flex-hone did you use, or would you recommend?

First time watching. You remind me a lot of Ike from cars and cameras😁
That's my bro👍
What is the name of the this object which you're using to grip the seatpost.... And where can I purchase it?
It's called a table vice and you can buy one at any good hardware store. Goodluck!👍
Manky mongoose seat! You could also put a set of handlebars into that style of seat post and used those if you don’t have a vice.
It would have worked on this I wanted to do more of a universal way to do it so that it would help more people. Thanks👍
in my case it didn't help. The seatpost is aluminum and it just twists due to the softness of the metal. Perhaps I hadn't greased it enough
What is the thing you are recommending in the beginning (instead of WD-40) to soak the seatpost 1:23 I understand 'PB blaster', is that correct?
You got it. PB Blaster👍
Got the seatpost out of my 2015 On One Inbred.
Had it soaked for a couple of weeks before, from the 'inside', bike sitting upside-down and bottom bracket removed.
@@fuzzi6870 Congrats! 👍
Wait so this isn't ike from cars and cameras ?
Nope. Ike's my brother.👍

Believe it or not. In 30 years this has worked every time except 2 times.

so was this a barn find. or a customer refurbish. hope you had a wonderful christmas.
Customer brought it in.
what state you are in?

i will love to see 48rim with disc brakes on it
I think he and most people are partly solid and party liquid. I don't think the gas inside a human is really part of the body so I don't count them.😊
Was the frame and seatpost both aluminium ?
Steel.
Steel.
Informative and ..... the guy is cute !
Thank you!☺️
Why not to use a seat itself as a leverage,its worn anyways,good tap with a hammer?
The seat is already broken its barely hanging on.
Are u from cars and camera?
No. That's my brother.👍
Are you twins ?
For some reason my seat post just doesn’t come out. It’s so hard to adjust the seat height it’s literally impossible to

@@alloutbikes I can twist and turn it but I hear like rust in the thing. And the seat is too low to add any oil
why do you pick a seat post type that nobody has?

@alloutbikes yea have to be cleaned up that's very true you did a good job by the way good idea
Look like and sound like a close relative of Izack from cars and cameras
That's my bro.
Nice
Thanks👍
Cars and cameras guy?
Exactly what I was thinking lol

If you saw his other video, this was definitely easier than the last one! 😅

All that labors would cost $100 at a repair shop. Better to buy a new bike.
We are a repair shop. We charged $20.
Way way too talky
