Steel frame alu post going to need a lot of force to remove. Doubt you will damage the frame cant say the same for the dropper. Clamp the dropper in a vice the frame upside down and try to move it round.

Of you're willing to bin the dropper it should be pretty straightforward

 

Of not, you should get a heat gun and strap wrench and get creative

Saw another handy tip with a penetrating oil, remove the bb and drop a ton of oil in via the BB shell to penetrate the post from the bottom .. that combined with the penetrating oil from the top should work ... if not, a little heat would also help.

Clamp a big ass pipe in the seat clamp amd use it for leverage to start twisting it from there you can spray penetrating oil on the collar amd continue to twist and spray should come out fairly quick I think

Put the post in a vice, and wiggle it . We've found this to work most of the time. Best done if you strip the wheels etc. Have the bike upside down in the vice. Vice secured around the post and wiggle wiggle.

 

If you are in cape town (on my mobile so can't see location) give Woodstock Cycle Works a buzz/email
