dyamamoto ~ Thanks for the update. I have a friend with a home shop I'll see if he's up to cutting a few bits of bracket. But if you ever have that bracket off, I’d love a copy/photocopy.

I have just finished installing an Echo Team fork w/an Avid Juicy 5. It's replacing a Mecs Saso Carbon front suspension fork with an Avid Mechanical disc brake and a factory brake lever. The response with the Juicy is unbelievable. I switched back to non-suspension fork as I plan a long ride through Central and South America and this new fork is lighter and has no moving parts and is thus less likely to break in the middle of nowhere Peru. I’m bringing the mechanical caliper and break lever as spares. Short of a few polished headset spacers, stripping and polishing the top tube and a new set of rear lines, I’m about done. I promise this time…

ps. My factory fork and riser are up for grabs, as well as a like new 56t Vuelta chainring, if anyone is interested.
