I just picked up this old Raleigh frame (Reynolds 531) and was wondering if there are ways of increasing the tire clearance. I think it doesn't need much. I read about crimping chain stays and saw the attached picture a few pages back. Is that something that could be done to any frame? I thought about getting it done by Winston Vaz if he is up for it. Doable or utter nonsense?
