Interesting vid. Should they be strong enough to bend, or is a rigid frame better? Frame Flex Vid

UHSS (boron process, not the more expensive cobalt process) needs a specially
trained tech to repair.
It can be drilled, welded, etc, but not by the processed most body
shops employ. Also know that hydrogen embrittlement is a concern, where
as it was not too big a deal in the older frames
I'm a hobbyist welder (4 welders in my garage), took welding classes up at the community
college. Materials classes in college. Man processes in college. ETC...but that
was decades ago, so I've no knowledge of HOW2 work on these new frames.
Do know that just walking up to it and using my MIG/Stick/Gas welder will ruin
the hardening. Maybe another class somewhere or buy a book on that...as it looks
like I'll have to work on one all too soon...
