PurePower Posted May 24, 2012 Author Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) Sent Cape Cycle Systems an email with the pics and they are happy to say that its merely cosmetic. Its very far from the dropout point as well. With this confirmation, i bought some putty and filled the hole. Just needs a little spray paint and we sorted.... Will post pics!

Damb , you have had some practice with putty ! good job ! get one of those white felt tip permanent pens and just fill it in.
PurePower Posted May 28, 2012 Author Posted May 28, 2012 Thanks... once i moulded it on, i waited an hour before sanding it down with water paper
RockCoach Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Nice work with the Prately there. Paint it purple. Only kidding... Do you know someone with an artists airbrush? That would work well.
