Claude Butler Track

Hopefully this bute will be winging its way to me soon for a summer project

Olympic track frame circa 1970's I 'm lead to believe - any one have knowledge otherwise please let me know.

Will be built up as a road going fixie a la Pompino

Only downside is that the seatpost is stuck - any ideas to free it up would be much appreicated

Any ho more picks when built up

soak the seatpost with plus gas.

sometimes a whack on the top can help free them off.

Hi CCE

What is "plus gas"?

Some kind of thing as WD40 or GT85
