No sweat.
Obviously we all wanna see it get a sparkle/flake/flip/fade job but that's not always practical/cost effective.
If you wanna protect your investment, look to get it at least sealed in a colour.
If you want to consider it, get in my DMs... one colour and a £15 aftermarket decal kit will make it a Samson again and protect it from the elements which can prevent this sort of frame failure issue in the future.

I ended up collecting this! Thanks so much @spicknspangled and also @general_greyharbour for giving up your spot. I’m thinking to get it repaired at Varonha, but at least for now I won’t get it repainted. As I’ll be cycling it daily in ldn, it looking a little worse for wear suits me quite well - sorry if that’s disappointing :)
