We don't have too many Pace forks here in CA so I am not familiar with how they work. My question is how do you route the front brake cable?

by this funny thing, a Pace RC35 fork always need this part

Sublime as usual Narder... You sure pick some quality projects,


B.T.W Just checked out the link on your signature to website/blog ... the lord of steel gotta say it's a good job you live on the continent otherwise I'd be poping over for a look around that basement and also tapping you up for a few lessons with that Kodak Box Brownie of yours

oh yes Nick, that would be really good
Much has collected in the basement :shock: some have to go and some will come.

B.T.W Although it looks like a blog but it isn't (I have no time for a blog), I just host there my pics.

Welcome in the Merlin owner club
Yours seems to be very old with the straight seatstays and chainstays(before 92). My favourite

Do you really want to use this cannondale 285 stem ? The good news for this, it was mad by nitto, like the ritchey
