Still just an idea in my head but shown is a mock up. 91 GT Karakoram Elite with 700 X 35 tires. I can use short reach calipers but don't like the look of the bare posts sticking out. Concerned also that the bridge on the rear is not meant to deal with the braking force there. The horse idea has me wondering if it would protect that area and put the rear post to use. Hmmmmm. Want to find another front fork to clean it up while saving the GT one for when I convert it back to 26" wheels. No drewing allowed on the GT.
