Of course... Derp heres me thinking of canti bosses then remembered this cannondale diving board dropout design yes, where they squished the alloy for freewheel clearance was a serious weak spot! I love the Beast of the East, and saw a fab orange speckle on black frame for £120, but it has the same inherent design, just a bit thicker, but doesn't exactly fill you with confidence!

Not sure. I think the frame had been sand/media blasted a couple of times and maybe the second time was too much. It stopped dropping chains on the Casette when I riding it and thats when I discovered the crack.
