removing stuck stem

<< < (2/2)

SteveG:
Might need longer than that if it's gone all white and crusty. Hope you can save it.

All good. Fired a load of WD 40 and clamped the stem in the vice and just hept turning a small bit back and forth and eventually it came out. was sticking all the way to the end. Took me about 2 hours in total but the stem is in good shape and so are the forks. Glad i didnt try and force it and break somthing :daumenhoch:

Thanks for the advice though
