1991 Alpinestars AL-Mega DX f&forks cracked headtube off

[wookiee]

So those of you who have followed the life of this bike on here will know that it has a cracked head tube. The crack runs for about 2cm from the top of the tube (nearest the handlebar stem) downwards. Its a subject for debate but some think it fixable and others not...see thread below..

Soooo it could possibly be fixed depending on your expertise or contacts!

Price is for 17.5" frame and forks with headset, BB, and rear mech hanger only...

Make me an offer I can't refuse!

Cheers

That frame is toast, kid.

Anybody that said that's useful is a liar.

Or they will buy it.

Right now.

And prove me wrong. :shock:
