Hello all,
I have an old ALAN aluminium frame i bought recently, and i was taking a look at the rear brake arch noticed that it was screwed in on both sides. Now, i'm sure it's glued too, but if i heat it up a bit and take it off, will it really affect the structure of the frame?
Also, does aluminium reacts differently to steel when exposed to a naked flame?
Thanks
