All 12- Broken Subframe Mount Personally, I still won't trust that broken piece as it could have microcracks extending into the material from where it broke off from. the frame and can maybe crack off again past the welds.....anyway, the OP seems to…
- Broken Subframe Mount or find a dented 4th gen frame at a breakers? I'm trying really hard to not replace the frame. It would be a large pain in the butt to swap everything over to a new frame, plus mine is pretty solid with the exception of…

- Broken Subframe Mount Yeah that looks like the only option but unless you can find a donor bike and change the frame. I am trying to avoid changing the frame just because of how much extra time/effort it would take. I should be able to…
- Broken Subframe Mount I hadn't even thought of that as an option yet. Its a pretty good idea. I think I would need to tie it into two points to make it truly rigid. Maybe even some how attach it to the broken piece...
- Broken Subframe Mount I need some opinions on this. The top right sub frame mount on this bike was broken off. The other three mounts are solid but the frame still has a little give when mounted by three points. As far as I can tell this…
