Scoot's yellow NJS Panasonic

and you should be good

see what I did there

"Hmmm... I dunno if I should ask but what is Skrtluv?"

Don't they teach Shakespeare in school these days? Henry V, act 4, scene 3...

"What's he that wishes so? My cousin Skrtluv? No, my fair cousin, If we are marked to die, we are enow to do our country loss; and if to live, the fewer men, the greater share of honour. God's will! I pray thee, wish not one man more..."

do the opposite of whatever FixedStar says

Yeah don't take my advice... Drill the fork and stick on a brake.

See what I did

I'd drill that shit all night long.

fixedstar STAHP!

Respect to Scoot for fucking the haters and wanting to drill HER bike so she can ride it the way she wants!

Just make sure there is enough clearance from the potential bolt hole to the tyre, on the set of steel forks on my old Lexpres it was so tight the bolt on the back of the caliper would have fouled on the tyre.

This will be a great build, and will get ridden as much as it deserves!

get mudguards and panniers tooo

i only joke. just put the brake on and ride it

euph?

Ride safe bro. Take it SLOW

Or take cycle training to learn quicker.

Do they do brklz cycle training now?

Scoot, I have a clamp on that I don't really use, youre welcome to borrow it for the time being either until you find one of your own or htfu and go brakless.
It would save you from drilling the fork.

Ah, that would be awesome, I'd love to borrow it! Then I can at least ride it around and get used to it.

"Do they do brklz cycle training now?"

It's called life, son... it's called life.

Ah, that would be awesome, I'd love to borrow it! Then I can at least ride it around and get used to it.

You've got Shelby's number and Henry or Pepe should have mine so just give one of us a shout when you want to come by and grab it.

@Scoot

Could it be that clockwork saves this bike, or will the clamp on be a temporary measure?

Time will show, let's wait and see if she gets on with this solution.

Having a clamp on means I can ride it and that's all that matters to me at the moment! I can also take it to lmnh to get the headset changed and get the definitive answer on whether it can be drilled or not

Sounds reasonable.

Its not too late Jess, you can still give up on this steel crap and stick my spare carbon alpina wings on...
