I have a Kona Jake 7005 frame in the garden. Its been unplugged from all the components and replaced with a Kinesis CX frame after the chain stay snapped (previously mentioned here ages back)
Well to be precise its in the parent's garden and taking up space. Seems a waste to simply throw it away (and I know the guys at the tip will try and sell it on). Has anyone ever had a frame like this repaired? What was the cost/implications? (eg I presume it had to be heat treated/resprayed)
I've also seen a few snapped frames sold on ebay. I didn't think there was a market for it but apparently there is.
Any of you been in the same situation?
