After the disaster of my PACE cracking right after selling it and me giving back the money, I've now had to split it to sell as parts.

420mm axle to crown for 26" wheels.

Ok, this is now 'unsold'. 🙄
Despite the frame having no crack whatsoever when I sold it...and I know this because I cleaned the bike thoroughly, and spent time staring at the BB area specifically when I was adjusting the front derailleur... It has now completely cracked around the seat tube to BB weld after the buyers first couple of rides.
I wasn't thrilled at the implication that the crack MUST have already been there, and that it's not possible it could have just been completely fine and then cracked on his first couple of rides, what can you do?My far more sensible friends and family have said that I should absolutely NOT refund the money as it was no longer my responsibility, and it's just bad luck on the buyers part, and it's a risk that comes with buying a 25+ year old aluminium frame.
While I know this is all true, I've agreed to refund the money to the buyer, which has now dropped me massively in the shit this month....so I'm now going to have to split the bike and sell as much as I can separately.
So if anyone is interested in any of the parts, they'll all be for sale.
I'll add a list to the thread when I have the bike back. -

I have to say, I'm very excited to see Olsen bikes new 26/26 wheel cargo bike finished. Looking great from the renders and he always has interesting ideas. The built in racks look great. 👍
