[QUOTE="Nuzzy, post: 3536257, member: 19486"] I disagree, with the caveat that it's designed properly to distribute load,i.e. bracing. My first was 2x3x3/16 and is ridiculously heavy for it's purpose. My second is 1 3/4 .120wall HREW and the arch part hasn't ever looked fatigued. Now my top tube has bent, due to loading in a direction it wasn't meant to (also catching a tree with the tire at speed), but with a suspension brace, I'd imagine it would've been fine (or something like Logrite does on theirs).
