if a frame has damage, i would not want the responsibilty of assuming where the next problem might rear its head. e-RICHIE chester, ct
OK, I understand that, but suppose the damage is only visibly detectable (to the "average" eye) on one of the tubes (on a painted frame), wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that the visibly damaged tube would be the one with the worst damage, and therefore more likely to fail?
