if its gaspipe frame maybe fine, but better to have it and not need it, ive only done a couple of disc tab mods but i have put in a brace both times.

With that particular tab, I’d be a bit nervous.
I prefer to do them with a tab that contacts the frame along its entire length as I figure it’s better that the forces are more spread out (I am not an engineer so no idea if it makes any real difference?).
Ps, I also put a brace on every one as well.

Hi,
I just paid a fella to make some mods to a frame including sticking a disc tab on the rear. He has sent me photos of the finished job and there isn't a supporting strut between the chain stay and seat stay as I am used to seeing with these types of conversions. Should I be worried about that or is it not strictly necessary? cheers
