I wouldn't fancy welding anything onto the frame for fear of weakening it.

Oops.

I would be very hesitant to weld anything to the frame due to issues of strength. What on earth are you welding to your frame?

So is there not a front sub frame involved that you can remove from the bike for welding - would resolve all issues?

If its relevant on the long way round they stuffed some of the electric welding on one of there bikes, i think it was the abs.
