I need to adjust the height of the seat post on my Carbon frame, but it isn’t wanting to budge with the norm,al force I can apply manually , it is a pear shaped post so cannot twist it and I think it’s a metal alloy of sorts ( but need to do a test to see if I can make out what material it is made of ) , I’m a tad reluctant to start squirting penetrating oils on it or tapping it up or down , I’ve toyed with using a hait dryer but not sure how that will go if the post expands and the carbon I’m pretty sure won’t , it has been mentioned to turn bike over put a bar through the saddle clamps put my feet on that and tug on the chain stays , if it is seized then I’m fairly sure any force may ultimately be very detrimatal to the frame , any ideas ?
