welcome to the forum mr g welder, when you get a chance, post some pictures of your bike and your woofa dogs, we are a nosey bunch of so an so's.
hmmmm welder you say, you could always weld some plates to the inside of the frame, making it stiffer like some of the race bikes....
your skills can also be used to making a new lighter rear subframe and fitting a different rear end, lots of fun to be had....
