No need 2 say what she is
Lost my mojo 4 months . Hoping I got the bug back .
Seatpost tube was a wreck
Bent , crushed in and cracked in 2 places . Gotta keep original so no option 2 cut off and renew this has 2 b repaired.
Made calculated cuts then made a tool 2 push out crimping. Then aligned all splits. After welding I had 2 straighten the tube as it was bent back aswell.
Then all done
Then the worst I have attempted ever. Just had 2 save the tube
Explain 2 me what went through somebody's head 2 do this bitd
Then the long road back. Still working on it 2 day
Hoping 2 finish it
Really coming on now
Hopefully finished pics later
Here u go . Won't be doing this again in a rush
must of took nearly 70 hours all told
making up tools etc

Great work there.
How did you do the brake mount tube? I've got a round tubed one on a Skyway TA that I could do with pulling out.
