Opinion on a crack
« on: March 14, 2008, 07:40 PM »
I need your opinion on this one chaps. Does this look like a crack in the frame or a crack in the new powder coat? The bikes had an easy life but I don't want to take the chance?

I swapped it earlier this week and didn't notice it at all or I would never have swapped it in the first place.

I'm getting it back next week now so not sure what to do with it really. May split it and sell the parts off it. Keep the frame and forks and put them on the wall at work.

I'd say it's only in the paint myself, but deffo worth stripping it down there to be sure.

looks like crack in the powder coat as its not as flexy as the frame so if its flexed it may have cracked the powder coat
