Some help on my F10 Ultimate Pro, please!!
Hi bike lovers, i have a problem or maybe i dont, anyway i need opinion fast, plate that holds front derailleur on my seat tube (braze-on) its pop-riveted to the frame, and now one rivet has detached from the frame. I took the problem into my own hands, i put the rivet back in to the frame and use some solid glue on plate , i put around 100-150 km, and stil no problem. I am just wondering is this a problem solver, or its just temporary. Please help. Cheers!

Yes, i belive that is the best option, but for now i am gona stick just with the glue until its separated again
Get it riveted again, pop rivet guns are cheap and you can buy variety of rivet to suit needs. I always thought rivets a poor way to hold the derailleur. Drill head off old rivet carefully and fit a bigger/higher strength version
Not knowing what glue you've used going to have to err on the side of caution and say it's a temporary fix.
