****. I need a front brake caliper that will work on a Surly Steamroller 1 1/8" fork and I need it before noon tomorrow. Extra long reach is what's required ... Anyone (shops or bike geeks) have something new(ish) that fits this bill?

Hey, I'm stuck down in St. Catharines with slim pickings on conversion frames. I've been watching toronto craigslist, but if anyone has any complete setups or know of any good frames please shoot me a message!

Prices are totally reasonable, eg. slightly more expensive than the sandwiches I get from Loblaws and worlds better.

Tack Somna's info onto her podium chit chat:
"I had a little mechanical: my derailleur broke so I didn't have a lot of gears."
Ahh ffs, so did it get hit, did she crash, did it just magically **** off and die on her? Looks like I will need to track her down and get a ride report.
