Howdy-
I ran into a guy while riding yesterday afternoon, who broke his Ti Ibis Mojo at the seat tube, and is looking for someone in the US to replace the seat tube. He had no idea where to start after being told that it may take 4-10 months until steve potts could get around to it. I told him I'd put the word out. Thanks Josh

PS Anyone out there remember the RGMC
I'd try Matt Chester or Carl Strong nmHalloweenie

TiMojo seat tube problempeoples

It's likely this crack occurred about two/three inches down from the top of the seat tube(?) TiMojos were built with a seperate collar piece at the top of the seat tube that was attached to the main seat tube by a slip joint and an exterior weld. This can actually be fixed quite easily by anyone set up to work with ti. It won't look quite as clean visually but a good re-weld will last for many more seasons. Replacing the seat tube is practically impossible. If the problem is as described, Carl Strong would do a good job with it as could Dean.
