  I’m all ears to ideas, mini v’s sounds interesting. I’ll look into that thanks.
  As I said upthread I won’t actually work on this project until next spring, so plenty of time to ruminate.
  650b sounds interesting though now. Would a disk tab braze on well to a buttressed triangle? I could potentially contemplate the cost if it means I have something reliable that’ll last and last...

  I feel ok brazing canti studs on the forks as the frame is 531cs so the forks and stays are plain gauge 501 rather than butted 531. It’s mostly for clearance and the fact I want to try it over other factors tbh.
