will knocking down the high points of the welds on my frame hurt anything? I am gonna use filler after they are knocked down. anyone do this and have pics?
View attachment 8144What about the welds running down the sides of the frame's downtubes? Anyone know how the factory built that section of the frame? I know the lower section goes into the the upper section but how did they hold it together. I cleaned the welds on the other side where there were little brackets for the tach cable. Now i need to clean the other side so it matches.
Rev D;91650 Don't want to rant but when it comes to frames said:+1
I wouldn't use a flapper, nor a new grinding wheel. . A new one is hard to control and will bite into the weld or pipe and you will have to get it done again.
Make sure the grinding wheel is a well used one
