take an acetylene torch to it to remove the brazing. should come right off.
though that looks like a nice frame. it would be shame to modify it permanently, but hey, it's yours. just screw something on to it. i've seen a baby doll arm once. totally creepy.

aka mattio
well, not exactly. the milling of stems and seatposts was part of the era of drilling cranks, chainrings, handlebars, and anything else that a rider or team mech could fit into a drill press.
i mean, whether or not lightening a mid80s bike was that helpful in race situations - well, kind of dubious - but all that removal of mass, small though each one is, did lighten the bikes (cumulative effect of marginal gains).
