Update 22/0712 A bit of very sad news on the Conquest :cry:

Whilst cleaning last night I noticed a small hairline crack on the rear stay it could just be the Powdercoat but I am not gunna chance it, I am gutted to say the least! but on the other hand I can remember the all the fun of bringing it back and riding the many times, memorable ones being at The Quantocks ,HONC and racing it at mayhem in 2010. I have regularly ridden it comoe rain or shine ,it's always been a hoot.

I will get some pics later when I am released into the man cave

Nooo! Gutting. Dont see a lot of these around, probably for the cracking reason.

Wouldnt risk it personally, like you say, you had some memorable rides with it. What a shame though.

Cheers Coomber

The crack is n the drive side at foot of weld where dropout is welded to the uper stay as goes most of the way round

The bike is now stripped and will keep as wall art I think, the rest and more bits will be in the for sale section tonight to make room and funds for its replacement

:cry: :cry: :cry: A sad day my friend. If it ever finds its way heading towards a skip let me know. I am setting myself a mission to try and round up as many estays as I can. Frames or bikes.

Really like this story, great pics and great bike and I hope you get it fixed up somehow :?

Could be welded relatively cheaply, then re finished?

Was this saved ?

Was this saved ?

Nope , the frame is still hung up the garage
