KoxXy Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 Hey all, got my frame welded and then gusseted :lol: Looks pretty strong to me, My frames abit scratched up and my stickers sortta melted abit but hey at least i'll be riding soon. Althou i went to test ride earlier and my :lol: Bloody koxx rim has killed another inner tube on me today :lol: Keeps severing the valves where they connect to the tubes :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyJames Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 Nice weld. I thought it was impossible to weld alu? Or will that just be very weak? :D Tis a shame when you get your frame fixed than a rim being gay stops you riding, unlucky. Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoxXy Posted March 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 If you weld it right its fine, its been Mig or Tig welded and then had a machined gusset welded over the top. should be just as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you,ve got a ride again,just get a aromudillio over it you want even be able to tell its been welded.............. :blink: Nice job. Lee. P.s How long have you had that frame.
