The only issue is, these Kona forks are getting rarer and rarer, so the fewer modifications I make to them, the better, especially as these are like new. I have a few other options that I'm yet to exhaust, including buying another fork (aiya) but it's good to know that welding is less of a risky option than I'd previously thought. If I were in the UK I could resolve this relatively easily, but here in Italy parts and so on are ridiculously expensive, due to their scarcity.
