So good news, I just got off the phone with the guy who is going to re-work my swing arm. He has gone over the pictures I sent him (lots of different angles of both my 135mm swing arm and of the 150mm ones that I had pictures for. So his assessment is that he can do it, no problem. He assured me that he is well aware of the heat treating issues and uses techniques that either maintain or restore it. He talked about several similar projects that he has worked on for professional bike racers. All ini all I was impressed. He could not give me a cost until he can inspect the swing arm first hand and we made arrangements to do this on Monday. If the price turns out to be right I'm going to have it done and can then report on the quality afterward. I did ask him if he would be willing to do the same modification for other who may want to ship to him and he said he would be willing if this one goes like he thinks it will.
