Repairs on damaged steel frames:

Does your steel bicycle have a ding in the top tube or a cracked seat tube? Are the threads on your steerer tube or bottom bracket stripped? Repairing a frame or fork is a benefit of having a steel bike. Instead of scrapping your bike, repairing is a great option that reduces waste, saves money, and keeps you riding the bicycle that you love. Please contact us with a detailed description of your bike’s damages, and we will get back with a quote for repairs.
