Got this frame back in late '05, and built it up as a racer.

Used it till '08 when it developped a cracked weld on the seat tube. Took me over a year to get round to having it mended, but it was worth it. I got a quote from Steve Potts but that was way more than I'd even paid for the frame originally (it did include replacing the seat tube). In the end I went "local" with Enigma whose builder Mark I'd spoken to at the cycle show. A good job for me. There's plenty of metal on the repaired weld so should be nice and strong, and that ring of weld adds a little flair to the frame.

Finishing touch were re-issued decals, don't know if it's cos I've stored them for a few years but they were tough to make stick to the frame (I've done stems before with no problem). Was extra cautious cos they've now been discontinued again.
