  • does anyone do lugless brazing yet on 953?

    It can be done, but in the Reynolds guidance notes it suggests that corrosion resistance of complete frames may be reduced by use of brazing rather than welding, since the filler rods (brass or silver) are not as corrosion resistant as the tube alloy itself.

    That "1000g" Baum is tiny, has drillium dropouts and a thin walled BB shell, and has never been seen on the scales. Carbon frames have moved on to the 700g area, so I think it's a bit silly for steel builders to get into a weight weenie contest.
