Is that a bodge? They've gone to all the trouble of brazing tabs in the correct place to attach a bit of chainring to brace for the disc brake when they could've easily just stuck a canti in there.

I think the repurposing of the chainring makes it a bodge albeit a very well executed one (that requires skill and specialist tools) that is functional and pleasing to look at : ).

Maybe we’re seeing a bit of canti brake backlash in action..

I guess if they'd run out of steel tubes that could be cut to length it's a bodge, otherwise I think it's just making something.
