Spaits got himself crashed up back at Battenkill. He ended up with some nice roadrash, a cracked seatstay and a nice excuse to buy a new frame. Since i used to build frames for Parlee, Matt asked me to repair the stay so his dad could upgrade his own bike.
Here is the before...
well, before the repair was finished anyway. The pictures of the crack before I sanded it out didnt come out.
Once I opened the damaged area up, it was clear that the stay had a couple small cracks. One went all the way through.

Here is the completed repair. You can see that I used a different weave carbon fiber to cover the repair. There is also some unidirection layers below the woven layers.
Except for the missing seatstay decal its mint!
