What is the best way to remove the seat post. It is locked in place. This just happend. Shoud i oil the inserts of lubricate them with something? Thanks for the help.

lubricate and turn by hand if possible. use a pipe wrench if necessary.

Strap Wrench ma be a better choice to avoid marring the pedastal

Use care with lubricant, if receptacle is plastic oil will cause plastic to expand and increase your problem. Been there I had to use pipe wrench which leaves post looking pretty rough. Mackey

I was advised here to use vasoline on my seat posts, but to watch out for the carpet. And they have been working fine.

I think I read somewhere to help this from happening use an old candle and just rub it on the post to get a wax coating on it.Jason Desertdweller.com Get Your Bass in the Boat!
