Cracked Trek 8000

[Defender]

Thanks for all the advice guys, I like the optic camera down the seat tube idea, i think i'll try that.
I've ridden it up and down the street, dropped off a few kerbs and there seems to be no more movement or paint cracking.
The bikes getting stripped next week, so i'll get to have a better look with the bb and seat post removed.
Of course the real decision is whether to remove the mint sauce sticker on the forks?

Please keep us updated on how you're getting on with it.
I'm starting a Save The Mint Sauce Sticker' campagain now :!:
I'm a bit of a Trek fan myself, my first MTB was a 1991 850 which I still have.
I saw a demonstration of a fibre optic camera that would do the job at the Race Retro show last Friday, not all that expensive for a garage, under £200, much quicker and cheaper than taking an engine apart.
Looked a bit like this:-

Just found this, not quite as portable, but cheaper!
