Sometime ago I read a post that said the only safe way to weld a motorcycle frame was to use TIG. Not too long ago, I saw another post that said most of the big frame shops are now using MIG because of the demand for frames. I know TIG is better for appearance and all that, but will MIG work good enough for welding up a cycle frame?

Thanks for the replies. I figured MIG would produce a strong enough weld for a cycle frame. I guess the bottom line is the custom frame shops might be using TIG to keep the welds as pretty as possible, although some of the MIG welds you guys are posting up in another thread look top notch to me.
