brazing question

[cruisinfornia]

Who in here has solid knowledge on brazing bike frames?
I want to know if brazing on cold roll steel (mild steel) tubing is okay and if it is okay what type of brazing rod do you recommend?

680 or 681 Low-Fuming Bronze will be perfect for most steel applications. Mild steel is fine for brazing.

get a real torch too. MAP gas torches dont work for beans... :roll:

Second that!
And a gas fluxer if you plan on doing a significant amount of fillet brazing (large fillets).
