Frame swap
Was wondering if anyone here has any info on switching frames from a Curado 51 to a Core 51 frame. If changing frames, is all the tooling the same and would everything line up correctly between the two if all other parts stayed the same. I bought a Curado 51 for $90 and the frame is around $105 so Id only be in it a little less than the original price for the Curado.Any info would be great.

I would send a PM to bantam1 (Shimano support), he would know if it’s possible.

Re: Frame swap
I am pretty sure Bantam has said on here before that the frames were different, just cant remember which section or when.

Re: Frame swap
Don't quote me on this, but I think the 50mg, Cu100B, and Cu100D all are the same size and you can play with those parts.
I know I have 51mg parts in my Cu101B frame and plan to mess with more when I get time.
