    I am about to start the mounting phase for my VTR fork conversion- again. Travel has not allowed any time for this so now is the time! I have them mounted now but the spacing does not seem correct since there is a gap on the left side bw the leg and wheel spacer( I have the large right side spacer installed as well). I am curious if any one that has done this mod has had to fabricate spacers.

    Thanks in advance-

    Are you running the vfr wheel or the super hawk? What triples did you use?

    The VFR triples with the VFR wheel. VTR brakes and Forks. I do have the VTR triples.

    No you need to use the vfr triples, sure you don't have the wheel backwards? I think the rotor offset is different from each side.
