is this your way of trying to get him to give up the seatpost to you?

I don't think the frames crack from post problems, the raised seatstay helps that.
Anyways, the only crack one I've seen was around the front seat binder area. A bit of over tightening going on probably.

Are those tyres staying? It would seem a shame to spend that much on a seatpost/cranks etc and then have modern tyres on.
