Yep, son said they would total a frame that looked like that.

Like was said, need to grind, reweld, and then always worry it would fail at the worst moment, which it would.

Tough luck.

Got in touch with one frame repair guy. Said for him to be comfortable, it'd entail stripping the paint, cutting the stay out, grinding everything smooth, welding in a new stay, then heat treating....cost more than the frame is worth

Well, if it's worth anything, i believe he knows what he's talking about. I've recommended replacing $200k vibratory feeders for cracks. Or, they can attempt repair, and when it breaks the production line will be shut down for weeks while they wait on somebody to build a new one.

Pay or pray. It was up to the owners.

Yeah. Thinking I'm gonna scrape together a few bucks and chase a hardtail Cannondale Lefty 29er...

Shoot me a price if you decide to sell it. Apparently the price went up a lot on those- last time i looked at one it definitely was not the $325 knife center current price. Or maybe I'm thinking of something else.
