    De-boss or not?

    Hi WD They do look very similar, just had a look at your build thread (and lost another half an hour of my life!!! awesome!!) yours had one eyelet per side and mine had two. Were the eyelets brazed on yours? Mine were cast as part of the dropout. Cheers Dan (inspired)

    De-boss or not?

    Yes they have gone! Not finished yet though, been too busy, (this is going to be the slowest build in history!!) but here is a pic for those that are interested, I think it makes the back end nice and clean? I had little interest in saving them for practical purposes so they had to go.

    Well the drop out lugs have gone! looks bad at the mo but a bit of smoothing about and I am sure it will be fine :? The braze ons will have to wait til tomorrow when a mate is bringing in a blow torch. Thanks for opinions

    De-boss or not?

    So....I have an 88 Kona Fire Mountain, its a heavy old frame but fancy doing it up, the frame is stripped and I am not sure wether to remove the brazed on rack mounts on the seat stays and the drop out mounts that are part of the cast drop out. Whats your opinion?
