This is a question Bodge Jobs

If you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of duck tape, it's not worth fixing at all, my old mate said minutes before that nasty business with the hammer and a roll of duck tape. Tell us of McGyver-like repairs and whether they were a brilliant success or a health and safety nightmare.

Had the same problem recently - nearly went donw the saw route, but having done that on a seat post already, didn't fancy it.

It's actually pretty simple to sort. Screw in the long top tightening bolt slightly so it bites on the wedge inside the steerer tube. Then, give the top of the bolt a few taps with a mallet and it should come free. simple.
