I just got a new frame & was removing the brake posts from the frame. 8mm didn't fit (did on fork) & used 9mm which was a hair too big.
First post off was an absolute bear and on the second I munged the post so an open end wrench will no longer fit. A vice grip type wrench with gripping teeth will not work as it slips before the post loosens. Tried a bit of lube at the thread junction.
Anyone have an idea on how to proceed prior to me taking the frame to a LBS?
