That looks to me like the non-drive-side is thicker, rather than the drive side. It also depends on the bicycle. I've got a '53 Schwinn three speed that's mad

It also depends on the bicycle. I've got a '53 Schwinn three speed that's made out of what seems like gas pipe and it's perfectly symmetrical. A number of my old steel road frames look similarly, and so does my current titanium road frame.
- J-dawg 11y agoThat's a good point! I completely got it the wrong way around and didn't look at the image properly before posting it. The non drive side must be thicker because of the torsional force on the frame when pushing on the pedals. Too late to edit my post!
