Thanks for all the comments. So tried the freezing thing and can just get the seatpost to turn 15 degrees each way. Just a bit scared about the damage I could create so have phoned carbon craft. Will book in with them. Thanks all

So I will try the ice pack and co2 cartridge. I did feel the seatpost getting warm where it meets the carbon frame and the it almost siezes solid. So the video does make sense. I will post my results. Thanks everyone

If someone could either advise me or point me to a LBS to remove an aluminum seat post which is too tight to remove from a carbon frame. I'm too scared to overdo the force in fear of breaking the carbon frame. Tried anti-siezing spray etc. but to no avail. Slight movement from left to right but that's it. I live in Cape town area
