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.

Thanks guys i think ill have to sacrifice the dropper but is what it is best regards

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
