Title: Fork advice needed
Post by: Gary72 on September 13, 2008, 08:41 PM

Stripped the paint from my SE cruiser forks and there is a crack where the end cap is welded/brazed on. Is this structual?? Will it need welding or should I just get some liquid metal or solder and fill it and re-paint them?
Pics are not very good.
