Listers and Listees,

What's the latest on stuck seatpost removal? The problem children are a Campagnolo NR seatpost that does not wish to be separated from a Motobecane Team Champion with Columbus SL tubing. The two offenders are currently be marinated with KROIL and will be for several more days. Any other advice concerning a new or better removal methodology will be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to avoid clamping the seatpost on a stand and gently turning the frame as I'm not sure the Columbus SL tubing will respond favorably.
