Titanium weld repair - can it be done twice?

High on his own farts it must have seemed like a good idea, to pile into the forum and shill the business, but it has been a big fat fail.

Not often you see a rude and arrogant business owner speed run alienating a whole community , of potential customers, in less than a handful of hours. It normally takes years to do that. Decades even.

As soon as the term “engineer” was thrown in twice I just knew.

If you read scroll his Instagram it’s pretty evident that he thinks he is competing with the high end bespoke builders. But in reality I doubt that’s true looking at the quality of the work.

We are lucky in the UK to have some super talented people building bike frames and I’d not even put his in the same league as them.

The geometry of the self built “ultimate” gravel bike is interesting to say the least.


I was kinda hoping he wasn’t another Vernon , as that Hei Hei on eBay with the broken brake stud has my name on it , but I’d want a talented person to replace it , with the same welding as factory.
 
Ladies, we've seen this failure mode on lightweight road bikes many times.

Caking this up would be a waste of money; best put it were it belongs IMHO for all safety reasons - it's out lived it's usefulness.
