Finally a decision has been taken about what to do with the Wanga damaged frame, I took it to the guys of Grip Sport and it's on their hands to weld a sleeve of 2mm steel around the kinks. That should keep away any expansion of any cracks without increasing the weight too much. I'll probably get it back in a couple of weeks and after that a have a single speed setting in mind that will be worth checking! For the time being here is a little modelling image of how the frame should look like, check the tiny increase in tube diameter around the lower diagonal tube and also around the section closer to the seat tube of the horizontal tube.
BTW this one will be professionally powder coated black with metal sparkles...
Keep and eye on Ferropur bikes!
