for mounting front racks on forks that do not have eyelets in the middle of the fork length. These racks could be used for panniers, potentially.
This is the large version for large-diameter forks. Think mountain forks (possibly suspension, but I think those might be too large). I have another version for much smaller diameter road forks that has less features.
The pieces could be sensitive to the compressive forces introduced by the screws. Be careful. Remember that the lower eyelet on the forks (for fenders, etc.) should always be present & should take most of the load. This piece only prevents rotation about the wheel axis. It might bear some up/down load, but only as a bonus.
Safety disclaimer: use at your own risk.
