I've found a small crack in my head tube of my Batavus Professional frame (see attached picture). I had a search around the site and couldn't find any appropriate answers for this particular problem...
So obviously I don't want to smash my face in so looking to get it fixed asap. Just wondering if anyone has any advice on the issue. My questions are:
Can I get it welded? Or will the weld just make the surrounding area too brittle?
If welding is not the way to go should I get the head tube replaced. If so can anyone recommend any where which is good/cheapish?
Any help would be much appreciated.
