Is repairing a broken lugged steel frame a viable option?
After 30 years of day to day use and multiple loaded tours in 12 states and 9 foreign countries, the down tube on my Nishiki Riviera GT frame broke.
The break is about 2 inches below where the double-butted steel down tube joins the head tube, just below the lug that holds those two tubes together.
Is this break repairable?
