Cotic RoadRat fork hasthe caliper there as well.

Thanks!
I switched up the caliper position because normal disc forks have angled the dropouts so the wheel doesn't come out under braking. The donorfork I used had normal dropouts, so I had to switch caliper position to make sure the wheel stays in the dropout under braking.. And it has been performing great for the last 8 months!

It's super cool that you brazed that yourself and it looks great!
But isn't that Disc Tab positioning a recipe for disaster?
I've always assumed that the reason they're normally behind the axle is to reinforce from the predominant forces at play in braking.
(Genuine Question).
