The miracle of Christmas...
ED209:
Some of you might have seen the knackered DP with the snapped downtube that was knocking about at MK11 and in the DP tent @ MK12 ... well it ended up with me :)
This is how it was when it first surfaced
...and after a good strip & clean ....
The downtube was cracked through and the metal was a rotten mess... the top tubes were like bananas and the rear drops were cakkaaaaa... :'(
...so I managed to talk The Grand MRD Wizard Mr 'Animal' Steve into having a crack at fixing it ... I didn't hold out much hope as it was FOOKED but if Phil or Steve couldn't do it then it would have to stay 'dead' :(
I was meeting up with Steve at the RAD Meet at Terminal 1 on Saturday ... and he brought it with him ... 8)
