    Is it strong enough to survive being run over by a left turning lorry?

    Probably not. It's unlikely to have been heat treated after all that extra welding.

    Shame, I'll have to keep relying on my force field then.

    He's even managed to mess up the Mech hanger mounting leaving the buyer with the shittiest rear mech ever sold.

    He's also lowered the seat stays so they mate to the lowered top tube but forgotten (it looks) to weld either to the seat tube, so it's going to be much weaker than when he started.

    Take one OK frame and turn it into scrap - has the distinct look of a college project where you make something just for the sake of making it!
