I cut the brake bridge out of my Genesis Flyer frame intending to replace it with a bit of stainless 4mm plate in the shape of an inverted cross.
Turns out I'm shite at brazing* and I've no managed to get the piece put in.
I need/want to take the flyer to get around on when I go to France to watch the tour in a fortnight but will have weakened the frame to the point where it's going to snap in the middle of rural France imping each my buttocks on a bit of broken seat stay?
*I don't know how to braze, I was going to learn while doing this job!
