May I ask why you are using stainless steel for a big bicycle or motorcycle part, rather than the aluminum which everyone else uses? That's awfully expensive stuff to work with, and very heavy.
Thanks for answer. I use stainless steel because is heavier then aluminum. I'm making a VW trike and regulation in our country is that minimum weight of pressure on first wheel must not be less then 100 kilograms when trike is empty. And if I made this part just from steel then there is cost of chroming this part end then are we in end part on same expense.
