Broken Weld, Any place in Brooklyn to get it fixed?
I just noticed a small crack forming in one of my seatstay welds at the seat tube. Does anybody know a good place to get a weld fixed in brooklyn? I just called BMW but they said they don't do repairs on other bikes.

BMW? I don't think any motorcycle shop would be properly equipped or knowledgable about bicycle frame repairs. Contact a couple of local bicycle dealers and see if they know of a frame builder in your area.

And how old/what model is the bike? It may still be under warranty.
