We also offer an endless array of things like rack and fender mounts, low rider bosses, shifter mounts, water bottle bosses, and pretty much any other braze on you can imagine. Simply give us your wish list.
Fillet Brazing
Fillet brazing is on option for all our steel frames. The beautiful look of flowing lines across the tube joints is one of the hallmarks of a handmade frame. We pride ourselves on carefully applied bronze that is shaped and blended into seamless transitions..
