Luke_bradley Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 (edited) I've got an echo pure and even though i have my bodged mini seat the lowest by changing the underneath and it still pisses me off (Y) . I was wondering if there was anyway of getting rid of that tube bit and making it flush, 'cus i know it can be dodgy to mess with a weld. So what do you think? Also if it takes skill my uncles great at this kind of stuff including welding so i can do whatever basically.

David Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Make sure you leave about 1cm above the weld so that it doesnt affect the strength at all. :turned: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Avoid getting much further down than 1cm from the welds , but any amount you remove will invalidate the frame's warranty . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
