Well doubt and lingering frustration got the better of me this evening and I whacked the cups in with a mallet but it confirms what my measuring was telling me that the fork is cut too short. I think I needed to get the bashing it with a mallet part out of my system to come to terms with the fact that I will have to throw money at it.
If it wasn't a decent frame I'd find another fork and rattle can it but it's worth saving.
