Sorry mate got distracted , I got a piece of wood , drilled a hole same size as post and then clamped it in a vice and then protected post with a cloth and slid a larger diameter pipe over the top and carefully bent it back .

Good idea for a straight seat post... think it may be a bit tricky with this one tho.  :-\

Jaymz:
I did this below by machining a metal bar 0.5mm smaller than the internal diameter of the post and doming the end and driving it down inside, post weighed a touch more after! But it was steel ruler straight and was never going to bend again

 :shocked: Fookin hell Jaymz that must of took some whacking.  ???
