Frame Repair: Braze Job Complete

Hey, thanks for stopping by! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to the RSS feed . You can also subscribe to BikeHacks by email . Thanks for visiting!

Back in January of this year I broke the frame on one of my bikes and asked for help from readers concerning whether or not it was worth considering a repair job. In the comments on the post those with experience told me it should not be welded, but rather brazed . I am not familiar with welding terminology and decided I would pursue the issue, but was not in a hurry because I have two bikes.

I hopped back on my road bike, which I had put on the shelf for the winter, and immediately felt like I had made a quantum leap in bicycle enjoyment. I had not ridden my road bike in some time and the first day I rode it I noticed how light, responsive, and fun it was to ride.

Küat Racks Bike Lock Camouflages Itself As A Water Bottle

Written by | Tuesday, 11 October 2011

Well, it's less of a weapon, and more like your run-of-the-mill cable lock that's disguised to look like a water bottle attached to your bike's frame. 5mm braided steel cable doesn't really give you an advantage over other cable locks. In the ongoing battle between bike thieves and victims, those hoping to return and find their rides exactly where they left them have a new weapon. So if you were hoping to use the lock as some clever ruse to fool would-be thieves, they'll probably be tipped off by the second bottle you now have to carry. [ Küat Racks Bottle Lock ].
