Haha na sorry should have been clearer. Got a call Tues night from LBS saying good news, the replacement has arrived bring my bike in and he'll get it swapped over asap, i said sweet! But off to Tathra so ill bring it in next week if that works. Havent used this previous frame much over the last 2 months but was excited to hear the replacement frame had finally arrived cos that 'defect' bugged the shit out of me.
Got up here last night (well 3am this morning and unpacked and dried the bike to bring it into the accom.... Found the cracks then. Only small atm but exactly the same as the last one. Be interesting to see if they get any bigger this weekend.
Id be pissed but whats the point, knowing there's a frame waiting for me helps. 4th times a charm maybe... Haha yeh right.
I know i said it eariler that if this one went it loose my shit but been caught off guard with the good news from Tues. Guess ill test the waters a lil next week and just see what everyone involved has to say, there is absolutely no doubt about it this is just going to keep happening over and over again!
Travis.
Edited to add: Honestly i guess im a dreamer, i always think maybe this one will be different, this one wont crack. I freaking love my bike these days. Have put so much time and energy and money into setting it up, and looking after it like it beyond what most would call normal lol, i honestly want to believe the next one will last... Only kidding myself it seems.
). Tho i do have to head back in in the morning to get the top mount front derailleur cover plate off my old frame to put on this one (WTF dont they come with one from the factory!!!)
