• My neighbour kindly gifted me a bike for family use. It's a Boardman hybrid with an aluminium frame. At some point someone has drilled a hole in the upper (mono) section of the seatstay close to the seat tube to mount a rack using a self-tapping screw. What do we reckon? Safe as houses or amazed that it's lasted this long?

  • Obviously this voids the warranty and what have you but given the location of the hole, in one of the most stiffed-up parts of the frame, I'd be pretty happy to ride on it.

    A bold choice given that they'll have been staring at the built in rack mounts while drilling 🙂
