Send it to a frame builder?

Plenty of chances to get it in cockeyed, or have it come loose after a fortnight.

But other than that, cleaning, sanding (to key it) and some epoxy of the correct grade.

Someone on another forum was talking about these a while ago http://www.carboncyclerepairs.co.uk/index.php?repairs and thought they were good.

maybe worth a phone call, could end up better than new if Planet X use pritt-stick.
