Little bummer of the rust on the underside top tube

 

[andy.l]

but frames are the cheap part :roll:

Too big for me.

Also would be nervy of the rust on the TT.. I had an O prestige with similar marks, and shot blasted straight through the tube :cry:...think its more than likely rusted from inside out

I think you had bad luck Gump. In most cases I encountered similar looking rust issues it hadn't structurally damaged the frame. Often spots looking like that come from outside me thinks.

Rust under top tube is typical for bicycles that have been on a hometrainer. Intensive sweat causes paintdamage and later a rust issue.

Twice now
Must be unlucky! Both times was only expecting surface corrosion under paint :cry: One of the most gutting feelings.

This may well be fine, rest of the frame looks good.
