usually bike frames have lifetime warranty on a brand name bike.

Are you wanting to get it fixed/replaced/warrantied? You could always take the frame apart, take to a welder, weld, put in oven, and voila.

Devinci refuses to stand by its warranty. I would need a bike store to contact them for better results

which devinci frame? I know their high end dh, like wilson has 25 year warranty, but depends, if frame cracked around welds, it's usually free replacement, otherwise they'll offer you warranty replacement at cost.

what info do you need? I work at dunbar cycles as tech.
