Thanks for the blueprint, and a good one at that.
I hate to admitt it, but yep, I can make that. I wish I had a little milling machine, but I can make that on my lathe and a drill press. Trick to that is to cut the blocks in half, or use 2 seperate blocks to avoid the cutting then drill & tap and bolt them back together, then grab it in a 4 jaw and bore it to .003 under the fork dia. And its even 3pc adjustable so no center to center tollerance to hold. Pc a cake
Now, to find some aluminum material !
How thick is the aluminum? I have good access to steel/alum/etc., we actually have some 1/4" aluminum plate in stock, but its probably thicker than that, huh.
Ouch, the SuperBrace for our bike is $150+
I looked on ebay, and I'm not crazy about the design/look of any of them, really. I like the Tkat better than the SuperBrace... just for my taste. But I would like to try one!
