  • Thanks. It's a place in Dublin who mainly do automotive parts but also do bikes. I have a feeling it may just been too aggressive. I can't hear anything rattling inside the frame thankfully.

    Will keep riding it anyways and just see if it gets worse over time. Will fill in the hole when I manage to get some brazing kit sorted.

  • Not too piss on your chips but I have a friend who had a couple frames powder coated (one at a cheap place that probably blasted too aggressively and one at a better place that should have known) and they both cracked within a fortnight of each other. I can’t help but think that the blasting and coating was the common denominator.

  • Yep think I'm coming to that realisation myself! Will keep an eye on it for a few short spins and see how it goes and will look to replace the top tube soon.
