Sorry to see your frame cracked :( Just checked mine and all looks good, but I've only had mine a few months.... Thanks for the heads up and hope you get a new frame under warranty!   ;

Very sad to see that...
You are the first to complain about such crack to the 062( any crack, if I remember well ).
If it is on both sides, I wouldn't ride it anymore :o

I've ridden mine for few thousands km and do not have any crack, even after being hit by a car recently  ???

Did you buy it from Workswell?
They seem to have an ON/OFF support service, I wish you luck.

More than the frame, is who you buy it from that matters.
I had a crack on a 041( a seat tube defect in the first batch ), and it was replaced by Peter from xmcarbonspeed very quickly.
The replacement 041 has now thousands km too, and still going fine.

The 256 has tiny seatstays, mostly like the 062's in fact.
As you ask, the 057 looks indeed very solid from their owner comments.

Good luck and let us know.

That does suck! Looks like I'll be giving mine a once over tonight.

I checked mine. No cracks and I've had if for over two years now.

Hope they get you sorted quickly.

I have had great luck with them after getting two frames and two forks. But some of the recent questions on here had me a bit worried about ordering another from them for my daughter. Looks like they are trying to do what's right.

Ive just ordered a spare 062 rear mech hanger from Candy, £13.58 delivered so a great price and service again from WorksWell.........

this model Re: Workswell WCB-M-062 is similar to specialized epic hardtrail but Is your geometry similar to?

ximobego: I would say the new epic hardtail has a more modern geometry, slacker HA and longer toptube. Maybe a bit more expensive too  :)
Here is my newly built bike: xt, reba, crest mk3 and chinaparts. 9,5kg as on picture. Very pleased with it, need a bigger chainring thought. Anybody riding with a 36T?
Wondered if it fits or is it to big for the frame?

Nice bike  :)

36 t chainring fits!
Workswell WCB-M-062: 7905 grams

I have 38T on mine. Althought a different model (no idea what as it was from Taiwan and sold to me by third party) but it does have a very similar geometry. So I'm guessing yours can handle it too.
