• Here are some photos of a Rourke frame I have just renovated for a customer. It needed a new Reynolds
    853 top tube because it had a large dent.
    Because of the construction of the seat stays on the Rourke frames (full rap over seat stays) it was
    A bit more of a challenge. The frame was finished in black gloss powder coat.

  • Nice work. What's the process for removing a TIG'd or brazed tube?

  • I fillet brazed this frame after grinding off the old tube , as you can not melt tig welding .

  • The Rourke full rap over
