@Rodolfo @zootsuit ended up lightly filing the bolt hole to allow the nut to reach the right angle, and using a wedged spacer.

Clears okay now on 25c but the faff has sucked the life out of the build for me. Finishing it out of stubbornness.

I would have thought my frame would be the same geo as yours but I clear 28s pretty comfortably with the same calipers.
Anyway looks great.

Yeah, it should do, but the brake nut at the rear apprars to have been welded in not straight, and then successive attemps to correct it haven’t helped i feel. Before I filed it again it wouldn’t even clear 23c, and now it will only with a pretty hefty wedge spacer. Still, it works now.
