mr mdcc....thanks for picking this up. i feel honoured (",)

the frame is a leader 722 and renowned for less than ideal clearance. its steel, it cost £100, I'm happy...case in point:

i have this exact fork from a previous build...its 44mm rake. the why is all about aesthetics. i don't like the shape of the fork, especially around the rear of the brake drilling. also I figured (rightly or wrongly) by going from 44mm to 30mm i might tighten the clearance up a bit.

i realise this might make the handling less relaxed, but given the HT angle, its not going to be too bad. so that's where I'm coming from really. appreciate your comments!

Just get an Alpina fork, 23mm rake, looks good and used by alot of companies under disguise of paint.
