Does this look right? Repaired frame or normal?

Does this drive side dropout look right?
Looks like a bad repair to me. Alloy dropout on carbon.

don't look purdy, but is it strong? Then it'll do.

Do you have a picture of the whole frame?

The price was right?

Just curious to see it.

For the record, if its a c40 and the guy was able to stop the corrosion putting something in there like a layer of carbon or something, then doubt you will have problems with it, specially if the price was right.

Is hard to find a 1st generation c40 in good condition now a days.

No. Its packed up and gone now. I had it for maybe an hour. My OCD would have the best of me keeping it. It was beautiful. Just not there. I paid well for it so........
