I had a C64 1st edition with external routing and wanted to make it internal with all the hoses hidden,i managed to buy a d shaped fork which would allow me to do this.Next step was to send it off to get it repainted which is where i am at now here are some pics of the process its nearly finished just clear coats and polish to do.

Where did you find the d-shaped fork? I have been searching for one for my Colnago!
