Nope, man, never did. I felt guilty about it after you went to all the trouble of making it. Still have it though. Beautiful fork with a sweet curve to it. The paint match is great.
Background for the others: My Saluki is set up as a camping bike with front and back racks. I'm a pretty terrible climber and I don't get better with a load. I had the gears though and could, on a steep hill, chug away at about two miles per hour. However, with loads in the front panniers, the Saluki became tippy as could be at low speed. Down right scary if you had traffic at your back. I got off and walked up a lot of hills. I had a theory that if the front fork had more trail the bike would be less tippy under load at low speed. Tom made a fork for me, really good paint match, with more trail. The fork, unfortunately, is still in my garage in my shamefully large pile'o'bike stuff. And now, tell the truth, I need to sell the Saluki to clear space in the garage. Sigh. Thus are laid low the plans of humans in general and bike fiends in particular.
