I pulled my front wheel last night and noticed oil accumulating in the axle clamp bore. Closer inspection reveled a hairline crack in the clamp between the fork tube seat and axle bore.
Has anyone else had this problem before? If so, how did you fix it?

I am looking at getting it welded and machined by an engineering shop. Can anyone recommend a good engineering shop in Jhb to get this done?
