<p>My seatpost was seized in my <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnprolly/sets/72157606550246331/">Hollands</a>. I recently discovered this when I switched out my Selle Alpine DSA saddle for a Ti Flite. Went to raise the saddle and it wasn&#8217;t having it. Typically I&#8217;m a grease-obsessed guy. I&#8217;ve argued with Tom and Tony extensively about greasing the barclamp on quill stems and I&#8217;ll slab it on just about everything that moves (except the tapers on bottom brackets). That being said, I was a bit upset&#8230;  After taking it to <a href='http://affinitycycles.com'>Affinity</a> and dousing it with Liquid Wrench, it was time to put it in the vice.  That&#8217;s my brother helping me out. What a way to spend your NYC vacation!</p>
