Alu welds need heat treating or left for quite a while to strengthen I think

Depends on the type of Alu and how it was made to begin with tbh-the heat from re-powdercoating after a repair would be adequate treatment for some frames depending on the composition of the alloy. A good aluminium welder/machinist would be able to give a good idea.

Ah I see, thanks for that. I always just thought cracked or dented alu frames were a write off, with repairs likely to fail.
