  Unfortunately, I don't.. I know loads of 1.25" 12mm thru-axle, flat mount forks, none of them have cage mounts.

  Btw normal/gas brazing uses silicon bronze as well, just with added zinc for better flow.

  Spend some time making a new mitre clamp and flat mount clamp.
  
  
  And used the flat mount clamp for some brazing (and added some brazing on the Ceeway insert).

  Yeah stainless could give some issues, but I've brazed these "ebay-stainless" tubes in the past so didn't bother grabbing some silver.
