@MechaMorgan
Hey,

I bought a frame from you about 5 months ago, and lets just say I have been disappointed by your obvious lack of honesty. It came to my attention, that on ride last week my saddle slipped, I therefore tried to repair it with little success. Surprising since I always use a torque wrench not to damage the threads. It had become clear that the threads were damaged - but not only that but that you helicoiled one of them, as the problem must have occurred previously.

Not only would I have not bought the bike if I knew that the threads had been tampered with, the job was particularly done badly wrong length helical. It now leaves me with the two options with the bike: skip it, or have the aluminium cut then welded then tapped which is not a cheap process. It has been difficult to find someone who is prepared to work on it, and I have been quoted over £100 (the best i could find - looked for a long time).

Therefore, I would not think it wrong for you to contribute towards the repair, on the basis of blatant lie, and the failure to mention it at any point. This forum relies on honesty, and I would be sure (if we can't make an arrangement) to put this on the forum for others to see the risks. I hope we can agree on something, tell me what you think.

Thanks,

Jules

I bought the frame off Mechamorgan. I did no repairs apart from have it stripped down at Soho Bikes, had no issues, and used it for less time than you did- it was a donor bike for parts for a different frame.

You've used it for 5 months, and at some point have done the damage yourself and are trying to blame me.

I have no reason to contribute to your issues at all.

Ask literally anyone on the forum and they will vouch for my honesty, and I've been around here a lot longer than you have. So I'll post this publically because- its nonsensical.

They stripped Morgan's old bike, and put the bits across.

In case of confusion the dispute is raised by @Gorix

I will let the forum decide.
Will check back in a week.

Dear @eyebrows,

Just to establish some basic information, the frame I bought from you was built up by my LBS in late January / Early Feb 2018. Groupset acquired in Jan 2018.

The problem occured two weeks ago, the frame itself had been repaired as undescribed in advert 'major dink' was the only major problem stated.

A helicoil is a major repair on a bike, since the previous owner had completely damaged the threads (high torque soft metal). Not only in many cases are they semi permanent espicially in high vibration environment such as bikes; the wrong size was used, 5mm which for a saddle is small placing much more pressure on the metal (20 mm usually). When that pressure is exerted on the threads it was more a question of when than if (aluminium is particularly soft).
Something a potential buyer would be unaware of. Perhaps this fact was not known to you, but nonetheless is important to state.

You do indeed have a good record on LFGSS (a friend of mine bought a frame of you years ago) but we all have to be accountable for being honest on the description of products. For it to be labelled 'nonsensical' is ludicrous, based on the misrepresention here.
In this case it was never even mentioned to me, Interested to see what others who have had problems with helicoils think. Would it count as a major repair? Very happy to include pictures, receipts or anything, I have absolutely nothing to hide - it is a question of honesty.
