I've just bought a '99 spesh FSR that I have now stripped down to use as a hack so I don't ruin my Zaskar. Three problems:-
The bottom bracket is stuck in, I've managed to get the ring out at one side but can't release the body at the other.
The forks are stuck in, the shims appear to be bonded to the steerer.
The frame is ally and it has oxidised underneath a bit.
Any tips on how to remove the first two, I've tried spanners, gt85 and hammers, I'm not bothered about keeping the bb or forks. Apart from sending the frame away to be treated and powder coated is there a cheap fix that will stop the rot from spreading?
