PK Ripper........ Do i or Dont i ?

<< < (4/5) > >>

Jazzchimp:
The posts react with the alloy of the ripper, they're notorious for it.

my advice is grease your pole well!!

Jazzchimp:
Oh and how about bolting a stem on to the post, then giving it some with a large lever??!!

Do i just strip the top of the rear tri where the marks are and touch it up to try and keep as much of the original finish as possible?
   I also have a graphite Uni seat to remove.... I was going to saw it off about an inch above the seat tube and then give the remaining protuding piece a sharp whack straight downward with a soft Thor hammer... Do you reckon this will free it?  Any help or advice appreciated as always :)
