1993 Yo Eddy vs the dreaded 'Crotch Rot'...

How many Fat Chance frames have ended up in the scrap metal bin because of this vicious disease?

What year and size is it?

Its a 1993 Large. I don't have the original fork for it though sadly. Serial # is 805Y3L

Steel is easily saved

Nice repair work by my man Jesse Hildebrandt of Wildwood Cycles here in Victoria BC. He even managed to save the front derailleur pulley braze-on!

Great to see that it was rescued

Color matched spray bomb to re-paint the repaired area, and a relatively easy build (I swapped most of the parts from a slightly too small for me M/L Yo). Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Yo Eddy 805Y3L rides again!!
