opportunity to learn a skill, or have someone weld it or not... It's obvious that the Magician frame needs some structural reinforcement in order to take rougher off-road riding on. With it's more limited suspension travel, it is likely the Magician has a stiffer suspension to prevent bottoming, which means the frame of the bike is likely to absorb more strain from harder bumps. The Magician was intended to be a mostly on-road bike that could take on a dirt road or light trail at best.

I hope you can find somebody that will be willing to weld that frame up for you. Definitely consider having bracing or at least some reinforcing done to those areas, even the ones that didn't break yet, if you plan to continue using the bike in harsher conditions.
