I know, I know, it sounds dumb and like I'm a dufus. I (finally) got my nostalgia bike after looking for it for 15 years, mostly on Ebay and the like, a Moto Super Mirage, late 70s (was hard to find the smallest frame they make)-- Anyhow, I got it and it needed a bit of work, so brought it to bike shop and then brought it home (w/out doing any adjustments there) and figured I could make all adjustments myself, like adjusting handlebars and the seat. No prob. The seat post will not go up or down. Help. I lubed it w/WD40, and asked for (male) help (I'm a petite female, only 5'2" with practically no upper arm strength) and he (my bro) could not get the seat post to move either. Help. I can't wait to ride my bike!!! _julie_c
