Yes. I got hit by a car some years ago and that left a small kink in the underside of the down tube. So the gussets is covering that and reinforcing the area now that the bike will have disc brakes and likely go a bit more off road. It has been fine without but I might as well since I am killing the paint

The gusset is for the extra loads from a disc brake?
Cool stuff, little mods to give something a new life often are the most fun.
