Friday afternoon would be good, as then I can take it to my LBS to get it cut to length on Saturday.
Yay!

Hey Dave/ Edmundane, possible spanner in the works though not too serious. My mechanic friend reckons a jig would be even better for bending the forks than the monstrous Park Tools lever thing I was thinking of. The jig will, I believe, have gauges so I can get the steerer/ fork legs more precisely precisely aligned. Trouble is I'll have to wait til Sunday to use this as that's when she's working at the shop where the jig lives. If you're desperate I'll go ahead and do the job on thu, by eye, otherwise do you wanna wait to Sunday (i'll even cut them to size if you confirm the exact length of the steerer tube once more for me, with the headset race removed). P.S. on the off chance Dave, is your LBS London Fields Cycles? And just to clarify, the lilac I'm talking about is quite a light one, but it's definitely lilac.
