The crazy/scary thing about it was I am not sure how long I rode my litespeed before I did notice the crack in the chainstay. All Litespeed did was chop out the old chainstay and put in a new one...not just a re-weld of the same chainstay...then dye tested all the welds and also checked the frame alignment, re-brushed the whole frame and re-decal it as well. All that in 18 days.
