You want to re-weld an aluminum rear triangle on a DH bike? You do realize that's a recipe for disaster, right?

Don't be surprised if Ironhorse doesn't respond to you. For legal reasons, they can't encourage or aid you to repair any of their frames, as that would expose them to a lawsuit from you down the road.

Why go to all that trouble for an SGS?

I know that welding something like that may be trouble, when I e-mailed todd I asked if replacement parts are still available. I how ever was thinking of remaking the frame part out of 4130 aircraft steel. maybe even try all three options
