N Roach Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 (edited) hey, Have had a few things been going wrong resently and this is one of them now. Just got back form riding today to turn the bike upside down to clean it, whilst cleaning I noticed a dark line running round the welding of the gusset at the top of the downtube. I bought this frame through tartybikes on the 20/03/07 so hopefully the warranty might be able to help.Has anyone cracked a 07 monty pr and successfully claimed warranty? cheersnathanEdit: No Pics atm Edited August 5, 2007 by chocolate_bikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NileBrown™ Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 My mate dan cracked his Monty Pr (DAN MORE on the forum) he got his replaced under warranty but I don't know where he bought the bike from brand new, As some shops may have different rules of warranty. But he got it replaced free of charge so I reckon if you still had the reciept for it, you could get a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anodised Adamant Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 They must be so weak because i seen a couple of people do this. they need to make these frames a little stronger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NileBrown™ Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) They must be so weak because i seen a couple of people do this. they need to make these frames a little stronger Well I reckon they can't make it too strong as then it could be stronger than the Ti frames. It could mean that: 'When you snap your Pr, Upgade to a Ti!' ,which maybe monty want? I don't know But yeah I do understand that Montys need to be stronger, even though they are comp frames.

Mike W Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 I dont understand this, oh well its comp frame buisness.Surely in a competion your frame has got to be as strong as a street frame ? the comp videos that i have seen havnt been less demanding on bikes than in street videos.I suppose it could be the weight thing BUT deng frames ect are light enough.mike.

N Roach Posted August 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) Phoned and sent today, I think generaly the lighter the frame the more weaker they are as with all parts. Also i didnt know that the 221 ti was'nt made from titium Edited August 6, 2007 by chocolate_bikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
