You should put a strain gauge or industrial scale on it to see how much pulling force is required, and keep a league table! Winner gets a new seatpost 😁
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, Ive often thought of that , might do ot one day
Man I wish I lived near you do get this done. Exact same post on my 1976 bianchi. Can’t get it out for the life of me
Hi, thanks for watching and your comments, sorry!
heating wont really help unless you are actively cooling the aluminum also. since aluminum is a great conductor of heat, it will take the heat away from the steel and since it expands at a faster rate than steel, it will very quickly surpass the rate of enlargement of the steel and be more stuck
I love your absolute joy when you freed the post. Top stuff.
Hi, Was totally gobsmacked, and thrilled at the same time
i had a good stuck seat post and i mean stuck took it to a few bike shop around 3 of them and each time the seat post was getting damaged good style twisted bent none of them could get it out of frame so got it back home sat there looking at it for an hour and ping! in my head i oiled it drill a hole right thru post for the largest screw drive i could find and put it right thru the holes and turn it one way and the other while lifting it and wow came out easy the bike was a specialized rock hopper alloy
Nice one, well done.
I'd love to experience one of these cracks in person! So satisfying! well done!
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, you would be welcome to attend
Always a joy to watch…
Thanks for the great entertainment!!!
thanks for watching and your comments
Very entertaining and informative YBM. I was cycling up near Tuel lane tuther day and thought about passing by your workshop to say hello but it had gone past 6pm. But I guess there's always going to be another time 👍
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, call in anytime
What did you say at 8 minutes... another round tousler?!! 😂🤣
Hi Andrew, lol, I said "another ram tousler", its not a real word but the phrase that is used by snooker ace joe johnson when he commentates on a snooker match.
Haha love it, going to start dropping that into some work conversations 😜
Hi, can you tell us, what the black collars are from/made of? Are these custom made?
Hi, Thanks for watching, They are made of steel, they are off the shelf but are turned by me to make them the right diameter for each seat post, www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313&_nkw=split+collars&_sacat=0
Do you use heat cold combos or only heat to unstuck it?
Hi, Thanks for watching and your comment, just heat
Have you moved to new premises Dave?
Hi, Yes we are now in a high street shop.
You should wear safety glasses
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, might be a good idea.
Would you say that’s the loudest sound in cycling? Would a 60 psi tyre pop be quieter or louder than that!? I always think about my 60 psi kick scooter tyres, what if they pop? Would it result in hearing loss?
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, a tubeless road tyre is the worst
What's name of machine
Its called the beast and its our design
Hey Dave. I had to purchase a Bosch Gen 2 DU because, Bosch wouldn't warranty their POC after just 5600km
I did manage to get a warranty (so they tell me) and the return of the replaced DU. Would you be interested in having a look at it and 'taking it to bits'? It failed with the typical 500 error code. Bearings feel fine
Let me know and I'll send it to you 🖐
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, I have one or 2 of gen 2s about so Im ok thats but thank you for your offer.
I’m at a last resort stage with a trek 520 steel frame aluminum post. But I’m nowhere near Yorkshire. Plus the waiver makes me nervous, though I understand it. Wondering what your thoughts may be on using gallium to “melt” the aluminum out.
Hi, Thanks for watching. I would not like to comment, sorry
When working on my Japanese cars I always loved the short, sharp crack when a bolt initially releases. Don’t forget the goggles when using the powered brush….
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments
Well done! I guess the only question I have is exactly how long is a "Donkey's Years".
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, It's anyones guess, lol
Brilliant 👍👍👍
Thank you
I gd a similar case on one of the bikes I found on scrap and could not handle it
But no tools just human power
I didn’t try to heat it up
It was alu cannondale cad 2 and alu seatpost
Think someone had to stick oversized post on it 🤣
My female friend made on this bike return trip to Edinburgh and back to Glasgow and the seat post was down to lowest position frame i would say 16inch size rather small 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments
Fantastic job Dave - just like you did the other day on my Genesis Croix de fer - thanks again
Hi, Thanks for watching, good to see you the other day, glad we got it sorted
Pedal threads can seize up in the crank arms too , good idea to take them out and Grease regularly.
Hi, thanks for watching and your comment
Really like your design, excellent idea. Thank you.
Thanks for watching and your comments
can you get shitmano motors from madison ? local ebike shop said they dont sell them but i want a ep8 to replace a out of warranty e8000 can it be done?
Hi, shimano only supply replacements but the ep8 will nopt fit in a bike that was e8000 equipped
@@TheYorkshireBikeMechanic hi when you mean replacments i take it thats warranty only so out of warranty madison will not sell any motors to any dealers ?

Hi, thanks for watching and you comments
Dave good work, great videos
couple of ideas for you.
have you ever tried penetrating oil applied 24hrs prior?
Twisting the seatpost with a long wrench while pulling?
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments, the beast is a last resort after all thats tried
Really nice one…I share your satisfaction of getting the seatpost out👍🏻😎it really is the hardest and my first part when stripping parts on a bicycle😅
Hi, thanks for watching and you comments
