    is it aluminum ? then pretty much no, steel possibly but never seen one fixed, have a steel one hanging in the shed with the same (someone told it it would be down to spot overheating when the frame was made)

    If it's lugged steel then yea, but I don't know if anyone in Ireland can do it, but there are folks in the UK and Europe that can, though it's gonna be pricey. NOt just the repair, but then the repaint etc.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
