  Thanks both - I reckon I am going to get in touch with Brother and see what they say.

  I’ll probably end up riding it for the trip - my only other option at the moment is a pompino. I am not sure I am have the legs to do 1000 miles single speed.

  Thanks man - I’m Bristol based but get down to London a bit. If I don’t satisfy myself that this is okay I might take you up on that.

  So is the general consensus that this area is not generally welded? That seems strange to me.

  I’ve only got a phone camera and shit lighting but it looks like a crack to me.

  Here is another poor quality photo for your viewing displeasure -

  Exactly that - however, the other side is neatly welded -

  I am in a bit of a predicament. I have been servicing my 2017 Kepler in preparation for JOGLE on Thursday and have found a crack in the seatstay that looks to have been there a while.

  I am assuming I would be incredibly stupid to ride 1000 miles on this frame? I have ridden the bike a lot but I haven’t done anything silly on it so I’m quite surprised it has failed. Warranty?

  Here is a picture of the damage:

  Updated the thread to show what has been sold and also reduced the cantilever brakes to £60 posted.

  I've had a bit of interest in the dynamo but that will be going to the dreaded eBay if I don't get any bites before the end of the week.
