A good deal *and* an excuse to buy more tools and make noise you say? I’ll take it!

Can you really say you work on bikes if you haven’t fought with a stuck seatpost? This looks like a frame definitely worth saving

That’s going to be a sick build. You must not fail, OP.

I’ve gotten one of these unstuck by having it in my basement and nightly spraying WD40 around the bottom of post where it enters the frame. After a couple weeks I was able to torque it out

Doesn’t look too bad. I’ve got a few out – the last guy who sold me a stuck seat post frame for next to nothing assured me he’d tried everything. After a whole can of wd40 and weeks of patience I bought a 24mm hss bit, jury rigged the top half of a pillar drill and… completely wrecked the frame
