OK, you've finally inspired me for the next project: That UO-8 I picked up at the transfer station is getting redone as a very vintage-ish path racer. Only question is whether I go SSFG or Sturmey Archer.

I believe you said something about possibly having a UO-8 fork that would fit?

Got home from work early tonight. Got another 30 yards of the driveway shoveled out. Am hoping to be up to the front walk by Christmas Eve. The Porsche is still buried.
