You guys are the most active fixie board I have come across, so I figured I would throw a out a quick question.
I am looking to get fork ends brazed into my older Trek frame, and would like some suggestions on where to get a good pair. I like the Paul's, but I think I may not have enough material on the frame to get them to work well. This also rules out the Surly's and Sub-11's.
I am also trying to find a good frame builder to braze the afore-mentioned ends into my frame, as all of my brazing gear was jacked out of my garage last month. Grrr.
So if anyone has a suggestion for good fork ends or a builder, I would greatly appreciate it. And, If you are in the Portland, OR area look me up and we can head to the Lucky Lab for a brew and Le Tour.
You can see the bike in its earliest form here My Trek (http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/2004/hedman1.htm), and my other toy Bianchi (http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/2004/hedman20.htm)
