Duanedr- No, the seat stays are straight. I used a Park F.A.G. (auto censor...) and my speculation of 1" of off center rear end is darn close to reality. 2" of gaged difference. The mono stay is not perfect but that's because of my build prep, not the incident. The yoke plate is now a French curve.

I will think about this repair for a while for a few reasons. 1- The seat stays are not exactly tapered and thus same diameters along their lengths. I think I might have mentioned this. I let this pass as it's just a MtB. Now I have the option to redo them. 2- I have not done a DeKerf treatment yet so that's interesting. 3- the LBS season is exploding and my time to do my work is limited. 4- Even if I were to spend the time over a weekend to not come up from the basement I still can't find a crankset that I agree with. 5- The woman who is not to be wronged wants me road riding able. (in fact tonight she asked for another frame/bike for me to build). Andy
