I picked up this Big One Inch Fork (and a NOS 1995/96 Team Yo Eddy in Harlequin Fade w/BOI, pics soon) over the weekend. The thing baffling me is there are NO brake attachment points on this fork. No post mount bosses, no hole drilled for a road caliper, no disc tabs. Can't see any signs that the bosses have been removed.

The dropouts are Ti G.P. Wilson, Ti steerer. Any ideas what happened here?

Thanks in advance!

The MTBR thread shows the no-brake fork next to a black Yo with a fork that has brake bosses. Maybe original owner ordered a matching fork with no-brake attachments so that he could run the same frame as a fixie? All I can come up with...............
