short reach brakes
Ugh.
COuld not find a fork for my build. I needed a super-long steer tube for a fork for a 27" wheel. Could not find it, so I got a Tange threadless and had it threaded. It listed as a 700c fork. I eyeballed it and all seemed good. Good tire clearance for 27" and I thought that brakes would not be a problem.
But the brakes are a problem. I have maybe a dozen brakes hanging around and none of them are short reach enough for this application, including several that seem pretty short.
Any advice?
