A Torus Titanium Find Now Finished

Yeah, that needs sorting. The slot a) looks much longer than any of the frames i've had and b) is far more cracked than the one i had warrantied. Also looks a right mess, looks like someone did it with a hacksaw!

Yup...the clamp and qr were fooked too like jeff capes had adjusted it! What might such a repair cost you think?

No idea, you'll have to find someone who works with Ti.
It'll also need the shim popping out before you weld.......

I've seen people using the Gorilla one successfully (it clamps the seat tube as well as the seatpost) but I think the crack on yours is going to be too low down to get it to work:

talk to the man Danson, If he can't do it himself I'm sure he will know someone who can

This is the main reason I always use 400-410mm seat posts....

Personally speaking, I'd take a cutting disc to that and shorten it enough that a seat clamp sat just above the weld, fit a long seat post and a seat clamp that covered/held the cracks. That way it would be the seat tube taking the load rather than all the leverage being concentrated up near the clamp area.

I doubt it would ever give you any cause for concern unless you were rolling off big drops... just my two penneth

Yeah, was going to suggest cutting it down too., Not sure if there will be enough tube left for a clamp though.

Yeah that was a though I also had however was soon dismissed as the crack is well below the top of the top tube so nowhere for the clamp to go. Hmmmm

A small 2 or 3mm hole drilled at the end of each crack might prevent it going further.

Won't work, the aluminium shim is only ~80-100mm long, so once you are past that, you've just got a load of useless post.........
