• One of my friends raced on an Alan frame in the 80's. I seem to remember that the tubes were bonded (glued) into the lugs, and it only had a certain life before the joints wore out and it was scrap.

    Is this right?

    Vitus 979 were bonded and this can become issue with some joints coming unstuck....one has to bear mind these frames date from the 1980s but Alan frames are bonded and screwed and so won't be a problem.....must admit i fancy the Alan myself
