Does anyone know how to remove my post from a carbon frame? ๐
If multiple plusgas soakings fail....... Cut the post off just above the clamp then cut sections down inside the post along its length. You are going to have to be very measured to avoid cutting into the frame and to get an even depth cut down that length. Cut sections and then implode the post in on itself. Use a long hacksaw blade with tape around one end for your hand. 4 hours work??????
Hot water on the frame and it'll be out in a jiffy. I'm assuming its not a carbon frame of course!!!
You can get an aluminium post reamed out by an engineering shop (had to get it done myself a few years back) I imagine that reaming out a carbon post wouldnt be too hard for a well equipped engineering shop. Wouldnt like to be breathing in the carbon dust while they did it though.
Try some Carbomove.
it's a carbon post and frame!
thanks for the advice ๐
How on earth has it seized in there in the first place?
Theres no corrosion that can be happening as both surfaces are carbon. Very odd!
It will be the Lacquer on the post Bigyinn I wold have thought.
I have no idea how it seized....it's rather mysterious....and could be expensive....
