(I put this here, since it mostly relates to the GEBE kit)
I went looking through a couple cheapo tool stores today, for anything that could reliably bend apart the chainstays of the bike frame I have. The tubes are only about 3 inches apart, and none of the jacks or beefier screw-clamps (that could be used) would fit into such a tight area.
I could make something I suppose, but I am wondering if there isn't some easy way I missed... The only method I could find was to get a cheapo farm jack (with a lot of farm jacks, you can set them up to function as fence pullers or spreaders). That arrangement might be able to reach inside three inches, but I am not even certain. The only size they had was about four feet tall.
