Oh thanks for the offer. That's kind. Let me know how the drilling goes.
I've had a bit of a result this evening. I looked at the mounts and brakes in the light of day and found there was a plastic bit in narrowing the hole on the front brake and the rear brake fits, too.

Ah hah! Result indeed - looks great.

Easy peasy, though it'll be a while more before I can ride it. Seems like plenty of material on both sides of the crown so I'm confident in it.

Ah I see now thanks. Damn, that's an expensive addition, and seems wasteful because now you have the old part just sitting around useless. Hmm.
Is it feasible to enlarge the hole on the back side of the fork a mm or so to fit the recessed bolt? I'm considering this caliper for my own build but $220+ for one brake caliper is really pushing it.
Edit: I'm going to do the drill thing. Happy to slow mail you parts from the US if you decide to go that route - I'm not traveling back to UK any time soon though.
