No need 2 say what she is  ::) Lost my mojo 4 months . Hoping I got the bug back .

Seatpost tube was a wreck

Bent , crushed in and cracked in 2 places . Gotta keep original so no option 2 cut off and renew this has 2 b repaired. 







Made calculated cuts then made a tool 2 push out crimping. Then aligned all splits. After welding I had 2 straighten the tube as it was bent back aswell.




Then all done





Then the worst I have attempted ever. Just had 2 save the tube  :shocked:  :crazy2:

Explain 2 me what went through somebody's head 2 do this bitd  :2gunsfiring_v1:







Then the long road back. Still working on it 2 day  :D Hoping 2 finish it  ::)



 





Really coming on now  :-\





Hopefully finished pics later  ;)

Here u go . Won't be doing this again in a rush  :2funny: must of took nearly 70 hours all told  :uglystupid2: making up tools etc  :tumbleweed:
