djb Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 "anyone else snapped them??" try everyone who's owned one - including me. On mine both seat stays came away from the seat tube. I only noticed when my brake got really spongy! It was still ridable though unlike yours and many others that have broken completely.

smelly joe Posted October 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 what sort fo situation were you all in ie, big drop, gap etc?? sorry to change the subject a little :) tom tom i noticed a small crack in it from just general riding I.e gaps, drops, a bit of street. but it finally completly snapped through when i was riding natural in malvern, i was still able to ride it until i got home and took my wheel out when the whole seatstay fell away. i was a bit gutted at the time because i could not afford a new frame :) ....but now ive got a t-pro just like everyone else (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
