Actually Jeff's repair was brazing on a dropout replacement. I do some rando riding with Jeff. I have seen the work and I do think he did a good job.

I'm pretty sure Ian of Icarus Frames could do that for you, and he's local to Austin. www.icarusframes.com I think he did a frame mod for local randonneur, Jeff, on his custom Riv. Also, Tomii and Saila, both local. -Nick in ATX On Monday, November 21, 2016 at 2:44:43 PM UTC-6, Jim Bronson wrote: > > I need to get my top tube replaced, it's rusting to the point of, I don't > feel confident on it anymore.

Norther Cycles in portland does mods, and they might still be doing half-off labor sale.

Have you asked Riv for a recommendation? I know there is a shop in Norman, OK (Buchanan Bicycles) where the owner and the head mechanic are frame builders and they told me they had repaired an Atlantis frame after being contacted by RBW.
