A Very Sad Looking 1992 Saracen Kili E Stay with issues

Yours as long as you promise to build it and try it. You won't be disappointed. Karma.

Two days soaking with penetrating oil... And bottom bracket isn't shifting. This is the build that keeps giving!

Could well be. Want to try it again in a few days first.

Being 32 and asking your dad to do the manly jobs you can't yourself loses you man pride!

My son feels the same way, despite the fact we share the same workshop... that was until he had to cut the carbon stem of a brand new pair of £350 Niner forks. My role was just supervisory. :mrgreen:

Big long knuckle bar and an extension tube is usually good for recalcitrant BB's
 
Been soaking for a long time, topped up at least twice a day. Nothing happening.

So on Monday I am bringing out the blowtorch to get the bottom bracket out.

Paint looks terrible so if that gets destroyed I'll just need to repaint it. Expect so paint damage anyway when I use caustic soda on the seatpost.

Time to think of colour choices I guess...
