I wonder if the pump has become a structural frame member.

It goes so fast I felt restricted with a high cross bar , so I had it lowered and professionally BUTT welded, as seen in photos.

Yeah it does look like it was welded with an arc rod held between someone’s arse cheeks

I saw the thread title and thought it was going to be about Orange bikes.

Excellent. Funny on many levels. I'd like a close up of that strange, sharp bend in the top tube just behind the headtube, though.

Lethal. Headtube is compressed under load, so the stress on that weld could be considerable.

My old commuter bike looked a bit like that after I hit a deep pothole at speed.

Makes Raleigh Burner welds look tidy. Really showing my age, here...

They're one step ahead of you there with those considerable welds.
