Im thinking of building a lugged frame but using a combination of tubing diameters which is not catered for by available lugs (28.6mm st/31.7mm tt).
I figure I could pretty easily sleeve the seattube out to fit a 31.7/31.7 lug and could even make it into a decorative feature but I wonder if anyone would have a recommendation of whether I solder the sleeve to the lug first, the tube first, or do both at the same time?
