Alright then, I've got a lovely shiny *straight** fork with bosses for brakes so I can stop.
Bling. (thanks for all the help Rob)
One this was fitted I noticed there is some stencilling on the rim that spills over onto the braking surface :( I've not got ahold of Neil to see if he's bothered but I'm presuming he'd rather it wasn't worn off, so ultrablag coming:
has anyone a 700C front wheel I can borrow for the tourney so I can use these bloody forks and brakes I've bought? I can't afford to buy anything else (and go to Bristol, at least) but obviously I would pay in full in the event of it being damaged. I'll pay rent of a few beers or whatever.
Also I need to mod a brake lever - I don't know that Neil would be happy to have his drilled so if anyone could bring spare lever tomorrow and I'll buy that if it's needed. I was hoping to have the bike set up as it will be for Bristol so I can get a wee bit of practise on it...
*actually the old fork was straight tubed, this one is curved but not bent.
