Fork brake lugs need cutting back !!!!
Moderators: KeithZ1R, chrisu, paul doran, Taffus
Revision - I would mill loads off that if I was you!!
the wood work one has the wrong cutting angles. The HSS ones may grab and self feed - apart from that £75 for a one off job is a bit much.
I assume you are going to mount the adaptor plate on the outside.
If you are good with a file and marking out then you could always just cut a bit off and file it parallel to the other lug. If you have a nice flat piece of steel clamp the fork leg to it, so the tops of the mounts are parallel to the plate, clamp another piece of steel to the plate which is the same height as the lugs and use that as a guide to file to.
