10 years? That's longer than many bikes here even stay in one's possession.
Seems like a win.
I drilled out a frozen river that was loose in a cannondale frame. Installing a new one was simple, it took 2min and a couple of spare nuts/bolts to tighten.
I will be haply to not think about it for the next decade. I will be happy if I still have the frame a decade from now, truthfully.
