  • If I wanted to switch my bike to disc brakes what would be a reasonably priced fork to buy in order to try that? Specs would be

    1 1/8" steerer
    Disc brake (obviously)
    700c
    QR (although I'm aware this isn't optimal for disc brakes).
    Reasonable tyre clearance (at least 40mm)
    Suitable for all-road/light gravel and light touring use, so probably steel.
    Eyelets at least at the dropout.

    Also, has anyone had disc mounts added to a steel frame? Anything in particular to consider?

  • On the forks I think you should give up any aspirations of modifying your fork. You can buy 1 1/8" disc forks and the fork blades will be designed for the forces.
