Frame cracked
I believe that my 2016 Sirius has a cracked frame after a bike accident last year and I feel like the crack has grown. Any advice?

Have an LBS check it. If the frame is indeed cracked, replace it.

Send it to Calfee Designs for repair or buy a new bike. New bike days are fun days.

How did it happen? I assume that is the seat tube? Odd place for a crack, IMHO.
