Im set on modding my frame now. Ive just finished cutting off the canti studs's. Next I'm going to drill and tap M10 threads so canti studs can be put back later if I decide to run V's in the future. In the meantime I'll fit a some of these:
Ive checked inside the part that carries the brake boss and there's plenty of material to drill it out and tap M10 threads. I thought about cutting off the whole thing but decided against it. I don't fancy all that filing to get the welds flush with the frame, and worried that I would take too much material off the seat-stays and weaken them.
Waiting for my A2Z 'parallel to is' mount now. Then I can get on with modding it and get it welded or brazed on. After that its paint time! Then I can build her up and go riding!!
