I know Will, I know!! Back end was flexing when out the saddle last weekend so if its under £100 then worth a go imo

flexing? you? was someone else riding it??? 😉 😉

drill it out and then put some threaded bar through - jobs a good 'un.

Have you thought about emailing C'dale and asking if they have an warrenty failure MX frames with a backend you could buy from them?
(every frame has failures after all)
Can it hurt to ask?
