Re: Brazing?
I don't think brazing would be strong enough for a frame, and I've always found brazing to be a messy ordeal. I would always prefer to MIG weld, but if you don't have that equipment I would think you might be able to try oxy acetylene weld.
I would think if you have the equipment to braze, I've always used an oxy acetylene torch, you should easily be able to oxy acetylene weld the frame. Although I've never oxy welded myself, I know it is doable with aluminum. At most I think you would just need a different tip for the torch.

Yes, good job being calm and asking about the validity of a rumor before fanning the flames and assuming the conspiracy must be true. - Greg McKaskle [more]
