Had an epic ride yesterday, washed my bike today find crack in weld where top
tube meets seat tube. Taking to LBS tomorrow, chances of getting a new frame from warranty? It's not an expensive bike but all I got. Giant talon 29er.

I would think they would replace the frame, no questions asked -- as long as they have some available.  The Talon is a current model, so they should.

Giant honored their warranty and I got a brand new frame free of charge.  Totally Stoked!  Jeremy at South County Cyclery was super helpful.  And because I had lifetime maintenance they put my bike together for free and had it turned around for me the day the frame came in. What was once a bike too old to keep fixing/upgrading is now ready for some new components.
