    Hello,

    I need some P64 frames, does anyone have some for sale or know a source that has some for sale?

    Thanks!

    What are those frames made of? Are they aluminum like the originals or are they steel?

    Aluminum. Pretty much the same weight as the riveted ones

    Nice! The riveted frames were prone to breaking at the rivet points. I have fixed a few of them over the years.

    I used one of these for a few day trips and no problems so far.

    Here is a pic with a late version riveted frame. These welded ones follow the original style frames.
