FORT Track RO.AERO aluminium 54cm frame:

So basically I crashed this in summer and it's quite clearly damaged. I haven't investigated below the paint but I've tried to show the crack at the headtube/toptube weld. Which I assume carries on below the paint.
And you can see the bend in the top tube and downtube.

I looked into getting it fixed but everything I found said it's more trouble than it's worth.

Just checking interest for anyone that may want to try to mess with it, or has some other use for it. I'd keep it for sentimentality but have nowhere to put it.

If no one wants it I'll just take it to the dump/scrap dealer.

Pick up from Waterloo

Still available. Edited post to mention its aluminium. And from some Google searches means it has to be heat treated after welding to maintain any strength.

Anyone that's wants it is still welcome.

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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

> Quote text by starting lines with >

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

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