Moose:
Why do you need a 1" seatpost?

crazy foool:
hit the top of it, get it in an inch further, this will break the seals, then bung some wd down the hole leave for 5 mins and grip it out, if you dont break the "weld" by hitting the post the wd cant penatrate

animal:
Diesel, use diesel will penetrate anything given time, works every time. submerge in the stuff.

it may mangle the post a bit though

quoted for truth :daumenhoch:

is there an expansion hole inside the bottom bracket shell? where the bottom of the seat tube meets?
if there is, stand the frame upside down and keep squirting wd/oil/plusgas/diesel in there so it runs down to the bottom of the seat post,

i finally got the seized solid post out of my old standard frame by crushing the top of the seat post tube in a vice and using the frame to get the leverage to break the bond,

stand on the bench to pull the frame upwards whilst twisting, it'll screach like a bitch as it comes out,but it'll let go eventually,

best of luck :daumenhoch:
