Hey Bought this alu frame off here 2 years ago..The cracks appeared shortly after,not complaining though these things happen.

Need some guidance on weather people will buy the frame as I'm looking to part ways with it(Bianchi pista concept) I've ridden it from winter 2011 all last year to this very day

Thanks in advance

If I were riding it, I'd fit a large external clamp.

You could sell it at a reduced cost because of the crack. Its probably not hard to be repaired. Vernon Barker Cycles in Dronfield is where my aluminium frame currently is being repaired for a headtube crack, only £30 aswell

Or, maybe you could cut it down and then fit an external clamp?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
