- kazinator 3y agoIf you you think that some cloth and resin patch is a good and safe repair for a bike frame, you can easily apply that technique to aluminum and steel too.
- scheme271 3y agoCarbon fiber weave and resins don't stick to aluminum and steel very well. It was an issue in the earlier days where frames using both metal and carbon fiber would come apart when the glue failed.
- prmoustache 3y agoWith aluminium you risk galvanic corrosion but yes I was contemplating using that technique to bond steel tubes and build a tall bike.
