Yeh it was me who got rid of the bosses for the cantilevers at the rear. There was just no way to get the angle of the brake pads hitting the wheel with the positioning of the cantilever bosses and the new sized wheel, I ended up not using the bike, I tried a few things but thats what I had to do to get a good reliable brake (also limited cash!) So there was canti bosses on the back, matching the front so I dont think there were replacement forks. But right now the brakes work well and its absolutely lashing out and I'm ok (just drying clothes!)
Yeh the bottle is up really high, maybe there was bar ends indeed.
Once again thanks for the comments
