It seems like that section was welded as one piece, and not toptube-headtube, bottomtube-headtube, and gusset-headtube. I could be wrong, but would it not make more sense to do each weld separately to make that area stronger?
That's crap man. I snapped my Demolition Medial 2.0 cranks a few months back and got a 7cm cut just off my shin. Required 6 stitches. Going to try to get a bit more then I should from the warranty Ride on dude!
Not quite, how many failures did you see on there wheels, stems , headsets , bars ? That's all apart of there line up , yet barley or non have been broken on pb
