You can't run a brake on directors, not the ones I've got anyway  ???


Can't go wrong with a set of these for the money

I wouldn't drill them as the welds are right on the part you'd need to drill.

Colony MVP forks come up for cheap now and again and they're decent kit, as are McNeil forks from a couple of years back.

Oddy have to be the default these days though - they're excellent and the warranty is more or less bulletproof.
