I was stripping down my mum's old Dawes Galaxy mixte frame for a rebuild the other day when I noticed some damage to one of the seat stays. Looks like the stay's taken a knock at the tapered end and split open slightly. Does anyone know how much of an effect this will have on the frame's integrity or if it's easily/cheaply fixable?
More generally, does anyone know any good sources of information for judging the seriousness of damage to steel frames?
