[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 63648, member: 597"] David if you look at the picture you have above at the huck bolt in the one o'clock position...above that in that corner is where all the cracks are, and they start at that corner and head back towards the center at about a 45 degree angle. This on 5 of the 6 spokes.....I have another race meet in less than a month, so was not expecting to find this, but I have been rearranging the rearsets and seat stays to suit. So because I have been looking a lot at the surrounding area, I noticed black lines in the carrier which I thought was just grease and dirt from the chain, but they are definitely cracks. I do not want to take any risks, so I will make up another one without the spokes machined into it. I think from memory we made it from 6061. Cheers..........Greg. [/QUOTE]
