Just bought a complete (but rough) 87' Nishiki Olympic 12 with a cool teal/white fade paint for $50. Came with a used set of Bontrager tires and new bar tape. I thought it was just going to be a complete service and be ready to ride, but the aluminum seat post is seized in the frame. I've tried every method imaginable and spent hours with a hacksaw blade to no avail. I'm resorting to the dreaded sodium hydroxide method tomorrow.

EDIT: If the seatpost would have been the right height I would have left it alone.
