December 26, 200718 yr I am in the middle of rebuilding a Scorpa easy (1997 yellow and grey) and have discovered a crack in the swing arm about an inch or so from the axle end. This is a bummer as I have everything I need for the rebuild and so far it has not cost much but I suspect that might all change if I have to buy a new swing arm. The bike will never be worth much so I would like to avoid the expense of a new swing arm, does anyone out there have a spare for sale or know if they can be repaired (cost effectively) ? An alternative would be if anyone has a whole bike for spares or repair, at least that way I could have a stock of other parts should anything else let go.
December 27, 200718 yr Any competent welder could tig-weld it,be as strong as new,I would expect to pay
December 28, 200718 yr Author the swing arm is cast alloy (not sure what type) rather than box section, do you reckon that is still repairable?
December 29, 200718 yr Author Got sorted, managed to find a none running bike minus a few bits through this forum. Thank you to everyone who PM'd me with suggestions and offers.
