Done a quick search and have only found some older posts so just wondered if there is any newer ways of repairing tube dents.
What are the options?
Chrome is a shot so was going to powder it yellow.
Cheers.

If you are going down the Brazing route make sure the opposite side of the dent is braced or the heat will distort the top tube.
