Hi,

I've got a slight problem with my Calibre Triple B. I decided to swap the externally routed post for an internal that I had knocking about. However, when I tried to get the old post out, it span, but wouldn't move vertically!

I've left it upside down for a few days with an entire can of GT85 (you think I'm joking) trickling out the top tube, but it still won't budge.

Obviously this isn't the end of the world, but it is holding up the Calibre's much needed weight-loss programme.

Has anyone come across something similar?

Fanx!

Jamie

If it moves at all then the traditional methods won't work, with stuck posts once I can twist it it is as good as out and some pulling while twisting soon sees it out (someone sat on the frame may help)

Ah, ok! I work with an ex-coal miner - should be a walk in the park for him 🙂

Thanks mate!
