OK guys, I'm not suggesting anything underhanded, and I don't run to "EM rules" but Willie builds his frame from scratch, and it cracks, he finds it and determines the best repair is replacement of the frame with an identical piece, what would that matter? It is just another bike part, no different than a wheel, handlebar or a swingarm (ya I know Willie doesn't have one). Just because the sticker is on that part, he should be able to move it and continue racing. Just my opinion, won't count for much, I'm from Kansas...
