My Homemade Frame

Recommended Posts

I'm thinking of doing something like that for my project next year or pimp bits, the only thing putting me off building the frame is ally welding how did you find it?

One more question what sort of paint job is it because if i was to make trick bits for my bike i'd want them andonised. sorry to go of topic-ish looks really nice

I wont be riding it; it's only made from mild steel, I wanted to build it from T45 but decided it was a bit pricey for a school project :P

I brazed it using some alloy brazing rods and an oxy-acetylene torch, the brazes needed a bit of cleaning up before it was sprayed but they weren't too rough!

and it's a bottom bracket taxi'd from a steel XC frame, so the threads are all there, i melted the threads slightly on the drive side, so they needed chasing out.

I'll get it built up tomorow and get some more photos of it as a complete bike (Y)
