Lugged aluminum frame repair
I just picked up a nice aluminum guerciotti with a 14 speed campy drivetrain and a bunch of other nice parts, but the seat tube lug has a couple fine cracks. These have yet to affect the integrity of the bike, but I would hate for these cracks to open up at 40 mph.....
I guess the question is, can this be repaired? If not, are replacement lugs available?
Thanks for looking
