Brazing vs TIG Welding for Bicycle Frames

When you're getting started with bicycle framebuilding, you have different options for how you want to join the tubes of the bike frame together. The main two options you have for steel bicycles are TIG welding and oxy-acetylene brazing. Which one should you start with? What are the pros and cons of TIG welding vs brazing for bicycle framebuilding? That's what I cover today! Spoiler: I personally like to use both TIG welding (for the main joints of the bike) AND brazing (for braze-ons and other details). But the right choice for you depends on what style of bicycles you want to build, along with your budget, the total volume of bikes you want to produce, and more that I cover in the video!
