Broken titanium bicycle frame, £3k

[Milzy]

But its not re-tempered every time it is use in the manner that the skin on a Blackbird is.

And it doesn’t leak fuel through the skin.

And this particular piece is very unlikely to be sold.

I had a Titanium frame that cracked on one of the welds. Just saying like.🤔

And yet I've got four that haven't.

If you had set it with a 'Best Offer' option I might have offered you £2,637.86 for it!

That's Sam W, @anothersam of ACF fame's broken Enigma. They repaired- or failed to repair it properly, more accurately, twice, when it failed again they expected him to buy a replacement frame at admittedly heavy discount. He not surprisingly declined.

Clearly a job for a bit of duct tape.

I'm sure we all know someone who would ride that ! He may even take a hammer and chisel to it.

 

[fossyant]

Well, ebay now thinks I want to put an offer in for said broken bike !

I reckon it is the square taper what cracked it, should have gone Hollowtech 2.
