that should work

elmo:
alloy is too soft to put in vice it just turned .drilled a hole through the alloy and put metal pin in then clamped to the vice which held it in place got more flex out of the frame but post did not move.it is really stuck :'(

lazychubs:
fill it up with caustic soda
watch ya eyes and dont breath it in
it will be all gone in the morn lol
just pour out the mess after

elmo:
will try the caustic soda over the weekend friend has got the right place to use the stuff so fingers crossed will work ok let you all know sunday

steve:
take your old stem, and clamp it to the seat post
-do it up real tight
-then, instead of trying to twist, whack it straight down
