V brakes... :shocked: how very dare you sir!!! :LolLolLolLol:
Cheers for that bud :daumenhoch: My forks are 32mm though :(
Could pad it out with a rubber gasket, which would also protect the paint on the forks but i cant run V brakes... Hate the things :2funny:

Would you be able to make me a set of brake mounts like that? Need some for my frame as it only has chainstay mounts :-\ of course, I'll pay :daumenhoch:

mount them higher up the leg for AD brakes.... :daumenhoch:
oldschoolace:
In all seriousness i did think about that as there is only 0.1mm difference in the mount diameter if memory serves. I think i concluded, wrongly or rightly, that as the v mounts sit 4mm or so closer to the rim it may make installing a u brake a touch tight :-\

Just buy some new forks and get Dan to colour match the frame :daumenhoch:
