just managed to re-built my bike by my own after a small little incident on its frameset
now it looks like this...



notice the black seatstays on it?
well, like it or not here's the story...







yesterday when I want to stick up a new sticker I found these on its seatstay........



so I quickly stripped up the bike (except the crankset & headset)...as you can see, there's the cracks on the lower left of the seatstay



feeling ****ed up, then I went straight to the nearest bike shop and ask if they could weld the cracks

they said they could do it but with more time because of the thin tube (Reynolds 531), but then I ask them to do it as fast as they could because I want to go to Jakarta for FixedFest 2012 on Friday (btw, if you know the event then you MUST come here to Indonesia!) *ads* LOL

and thank God, the mechanic did their best job and I could picked up my frameset today



so the reason for the black seatstays is just because I felt weird about the welded only on the left side, so I wrapped it with black duct tape to cover it but on both sides to look a bit "normal" LOL

well, I think I should restore it to its original paintjob soon enough (maybe after FixedFest)
or just sell the frames for a cheap price and then buy a cheap track frames

still confuse which one should I choose....
