Seat opening problem
Jyrays:
Hi, a week ago opened the seat w/o problems, but cannot open it anymore!
I remember Vara had sometimes broken wire from lock, anyone has any idea of CT? I am on a trip and dont want to start disassembling the rear of the bike if not necessary...

Time to get serious :

Some yeas ago Phil (silver fox) had a similar problem. I investigated and found that a 5mm hole drilled up from under the rear mudguard, allowed you to push up a thin screwdriver and unlatch the seat. I told Phil the exact spot to drill and it worked.
I have forgotten the exact position and I no longer have a Varadero to find out!
Perhaps a 'search' would help?

Jusst had a thought! Try pushing very hard down on the seat at the back as you try to unlock the seat. :-\
