Spent my lunch shaving a few mm off the jig here and there so the whole shooting match plus instructions comes in under the Royal mail 2kg weight bracket.
If anyone needs help it should cost around £3 to post out  :daumenhoch:

No pics, but plenty tried (& failed) to get it out

Griff, have you tried bunging the bottom of the tube and pouring caustic soda solution down the post?  I'm sure aluminium oxide is attacked by alkali solutions?  Might be enough to free things up.......

No, because the bike's set up very nicely and that would mean pulling it all apart (& I'm a lazy fooker)
And sold the gt layback that was going to go in there

Come on Griff let have that fooker out once and for all  :D
