The one note of concern that I have is that you have a drop out without eyelets and he will add an eyelet to the drop out. While I think that should be strong enough, it is not as much contact are as some other brazed on features. scarlson above has lots of contact area on that eyelet that is attached to the fork. If it is going to be like that, you can carry a full propane tank on it I don't know why I picked a propane take but it is heavy.

Maybe we can get gugie to comment.
