Just not of the wanted kind.
I got the blue frame from storage today to give the seat post a go. To see how stuck it is, I sprayed a bit of rust dissolver from the top and bottom, then stuck a screwdriver into the already torn seat past and heard a pang. Normally, I'd expect for the seat post to move after that, but it didn't. Weird. A bit of investigation lead to detecting the rather big split at the back of the seat stays. Guess it's in for a repair job now. Nothing I did wrong, it would have happened anyway when trying to remove that seat post.
The other one is Shawn's seat tube in dire need of a repair. Good news, though, the chrome of the blue bike's fork is in rather fine condition, so it just needs a powder coat. I've asked Busaste if he can sort out my frames.
