Okay, so I want to build up a street bike with dual 24s. Running a Vanilla R set at 80mm. My question is, is there a product out there that would screw into the Fox's brake bosses and lower the boss's 1" so I can run Vee's with this setup? Discs would be in grave danger on this bike, and just aren't as hardcore as a set of DX vee's

I could always get something machined if need be, I think I have a hookup on that. Hey while I'm at it, does anyone make a DJ fork like the PX that is made for a 24"?

TIA!

well, i've made something myself: i machined a sort of brakebooster, but with longer arms. take the canti bosses of an old fork (and a saw), screw them onto the arms. then saw the cantibosses off your current fork. now screw the booster thing on your forh.
it's heavy, and you have to be handy

That's what I was thinking!! :)

Actually since the time i posted this, a certain framebuilder contacted me expressing interest in making a few to sell. They will only be 80ish grams and WILL hold up to the abuse. Stay tuned :)
