1995 Ibis Mojo

Unfortunately I don't get to tinker as much as I would like because there are just too many other things going on at the moment...

However I knew that the frame had two dents on the top tube before I bought it. At first I thought they wouldn't bother me, but that wasn't the case after all.

They look much worse in the pictures than they actually were, but I still wanted to remove them. As I could only have done the work myself with filler and didn't want to, I got professional help.

I've just picked up the frame during my lunch break and I'm very happy with the result!

Next step: Restoring the paint

I also had contacted Scot Nicol about the fork and he recommended a height of around 450mm.

Thanks again to you @Prodigal Son!

I already have two forks in mind and will see when I can present an update here.

Until then, I wish you all a nice weekend!
 
Can you tell us more about the repairing process? Very interesting
I'm dumb as a stump when it comes to soldering and welding, so I can't make any qualified comments here, but he can:

This is how the repair was done, except the pipe didn't need to be rolled out as they weren't as bad as in the video.
