2-piece seatstays?
Greetings fellas,
Got a seatstay issue to ask about. I've got one of those seat lugs with the 14mm seatstay ports (kinda like the ones Zank likes to use) but I want to use a larger diameter seatstay like a 16mm. I thought about cutting shorter sections off the 14mm stays to fit into the ports and then sliding 16mm stays over those and brazing them in place, essentially making them 2-piece seatstays with the joint maybe 20-30mm away from the ports. So I'm wondering:
1) How much of an overlap between the two sections would be advisable?
2) Braze the two pieces together first and then the dropout+port ends or ends first and then the sleeve part?
3) If the fit is a little loose, is using 45 silver or Fillet Pro ok?
Thanks,
Hansen
