Or should I put some bolts in to stop water getting in frame?

I use nylon grub screws, because they weigh nothing and cost basically nothing, I like this sort of bullshit.

Odd as I'm debating drilling a hole on the underside of the bb shell on a frame I'm building up! Lol

Pity we can't trade, erm, holes.

Mine or op's mate?

Mines alloy. Don't like the thought of a pool of water sloshing about with no where to drain from. Probably being a bit OCD though.

Ok well let's say one frame is steel, the other ally

One set of forks steel the other set carbon

Leave the holes empty in the steel stuff?

I would certainly plug the holes on the steel frame if water could get in and cause rust...
