I helped sort a mate out with a bike 5 years ago. Looks like this:
Ovalised down tube, I think chromoly but I don't have the frame to hand to confirm. And it was 5 years ago. Sadly, this has just happened:
He's not too upset as he thrashed the bike every day and got his moneys' worth for sure. My question is a) is that repairable and/or b) would it be worth repairing? Our assumption is not, in which case does anyone have a nice-ish ~56cm frame they're looking to offload. Also, assuming repair wouldn't pass a cost/benefit analysis, does anyone have any use for the frame for practice welding or other purpose?
Cheers
