So I asked about silver brazing a disc tab on facebook and (Super)Ted and a guy I know that works at Shand both reckoned silver might be a bit weak and that I should use brass but that Mapp won't cut it for brass.
As I said above, I'm thinking about upgrading to Oxy
acetylenePropane (its cheaper) but that's a while off so in the mean time I've bought theseSo that I can a 2.4 on the front of the Surly and dispense with the horrible aluminium fork. Rode at Glentress today and it sucked, Glentress sucked (big time) and that harsh ali fork sucked dogs balls too. Got a front pinch flat, I'm blaming the 0.1" that the front tyre is smaller by and also those Conti Verticals have pish thin sidewalls.
