AELLE IS A CHROME MANGANESE (NOT CHROMOLY) ALLOY THAT LENDS ITSELF TO AUTOMATED
WELDING PROCESSES. THERE IS A BUTTED VERSION.
Some years after the original Aelle
introduction Columbus began making the butted manganese moly tubes, but
soon after their introduction they introduced the Cromor set which cut
into the marketability of the former. Our local shop sold the Torpados as
a budget racer.
