Tuesday afternoon I put my Rambouillet in the work stand to check
everything over before the inaugural ride of the neighborhood coffee
shop group ride and I noticed my rear brake caliper moving way too
much when I stopped the rear wheel. I thought that my mounting bolt
was loose.
Upon closer examination I realized the tubular bridge between the
stays has completely broken its brazing and is free to rotate when the
back brake is applied. Not a little bit, a lot.
Scientific analysis couldn't determine a worse day of the year to be
looking for frame repair/repaint or get a new one. I know the paint
alone is going to be big if I have the original finish replicated.
I'm just sick about it.
I deeply sympathize. If yours is one of the 1st gen orange ones, I
don't think there's any way you're going to replicate the original finish.
