Four popular bicycle frame materials are steel, aluminum, titanium and carbon fiber. Beryllium, Metal Matrix Composites and other materials have so far demonstrated limited practicality in bicycle frames. Mysterious and seemingly miraculous beryllium is one-third the weight of aluminum and six times as stiff as steel.his is another reason to look for metal frame parts (such as dropouts) that are made of titanium rather than aluminum if you are shopping for a carbon fiber bike. Discontinuity of materials can create stress-risers where the carbon fiber meets the other material. The stress-risers can lead to failure.
Some really nice 110-V machines on the market are real workhorses as long as you have the right fuse. And yes, you can use it on a motorcycle frame as long as itâs made out of steel or steel alloy. Itâs a great process for a bike frame because the heat is concentrated in a small area. As a matter of fact, I recently welded a crack between the kick starter and clutch plate on a dirt bike.
