I've had my carbon soloist for almost 4 months when the other day I found out that my seat stay cracked on the right side. I'm 5'6" @ 140 lbs., never crashed, dropped, or damaged by bike in any way. Has anyone else has had or heard of this problem?

SOunds like you need a warrantee replacement.

Fortunately, the replacement is already on its way and I should be riding again in a little over a week.

That's good!

I think this kind of thing probably happens a lot with all mass manufactured goods. There will always be some that are duds. At least you'll have a happy ending.
Let us know how it rides!

That's why I would never buy a CF Cervelo from ebay - I need the warranty, especially with Cervelo's history with the R2.5. But I got my Aluminum Soloist from ebay - no problems.

hi,i have a split carbon post in my new merida carbon bike.it would move down and sideways.i think did it up a bit tight. take care with your new one.
