Restored Syncros seatpost

[Fatboy1974]

Hi. I bought a very damaged silver Syncros post 27,2mm with last 90's decals, I polished and I just put early 90's decals. What do you think about the result?

Nice work restoring the seat post looks like new. I have been using the same post for almost 30 years and only had one problem when one of the screws snapped that hold the seat in place.

Very shiny!

I've got a Syncros post with a seized brass nut. Anybody got any suggestions on how to remove it? Tried soaking it in WD40 a few years ago, but that obviously did nothing.

They are difficult to find, so take care of it Ypu should use something acting like a press or bearing extractor

if not, you need to drill it to remove it.

Soak it in Diesel for 2 days and carefully hammer out the brass nut to one side.

I have machined them as replacement & repair parts!
