i found this on the "keel" of my trance last night.
apparently the unearthly crack of a rock coming up off the front wheel wasnt a "narrow escape" afterall.
oops!
i dont think its structural, being Allux, the materials probably about a foot thick there anyway.
Show me your dents!
ones that retired the bike and ones that you still ride with.
Rarely ever get an impact, but I bought an NRS frame with a bigger dent than that in the same location. I'll grab a photo later 🙂
Hmmm, a dentistry thread

christ snow slave, still ride it?
over a weld too.
Ive got loads of dents and keep riding. A dent is just a reshaping of the tube, it a crack that Id worry about. Also a dent is localised, so unless its big enough to reshape over half the tube Id not worry about it.
"Still ride it?" Bah, a meer flesh wound, course I do. This is English tractor metal we're looking at here.
and English tractor welding as well...
exactly
You should see the top tube of my old steel road bike...
