Hi all

A friend of mine bought a CAAD5 frameset. After having ridden it for a couple of days he noted that there is some loose piece of metal in the downtube rattling

We assume that the previous owner had a stuck bottle cafe screw drilled through and some leftovers fell into the DT

there is no connection from the DT to the BB, but a small hole connecting the DT to the HT,

However, when you shake/turn the frame, the metal piece does not appear at the HT-hole

Does anyone has a workaround of how to solve this?

Drill a hole from the bb shell to the DT?

Thanks so much

It’s a bit of a bodge, but if you can’t get it out, maybe squirt a little bit of Evo Stik impact adhesive through a bottle cage hole and let it run to the bottom and stick the fragment in place?
