rust! what do you do?

 :shocked: those are great results with the lemon juice.

Gonna use white vinegar first just because I've got some and take it from there.

Looks like this is a water trap on the GT Pro frames, no drainage holes in the BB shell, I never noticed the rust before because where the seatpost was in the seat tube is better than ok like the rest of the frame.

I came across this weigle framesaver stuff when I was looking for stuff to treat it with but it seems to be more suitable for new frames, reckon something like waxoyl might be better if theres rust there.
