extra - you're not being an ass - that's the kind of feedback I need
mdcc_tester - I stand corrected about the welding, but cheap steel frames have tons of issues, like tubing flaring from constant use and because the drop outs are made so thin and flimsy they lead to failures. The steel itself lends itself to lots of oxidisation, more then aluminium and more problems.
