I am wondering if there are any mtb companies that will custom machine fork clamps for a project I'm looking at doing. Any info would be appreciated,

thx.

Why not just find a local machining company and solve it that way

I considered that Primoz, but I would like their expertise in triple clamp building and will let me know if it is a viable idea or not.

Maybe a bit more info about what exactly you're trying to accomplish would help us advise.

I have this linkage fork and like it, but not sure about the long term viability of the large main titanium tube mounting system. I am exploring the different clamping style of clamp for the downtube, and would entertain even replacing the main tube with aluminum or thin wall steel tubing if I need to. I'm not sure that it is a viable way to do it due to the excessive forces front/back/left/right. I'm not a fast rider at all, but I dont want this fork to fail on me if I push it too hard. If I cannot make it work it will go on my in town bicycle and I'll upgrade to a standard type fork. Thank you for asking, and sorry about the multiple posts, as I found I couldnt attach mor than one photo. lol

Try getting in touch with Luxxon. He probably has an email on his website. Dude spreads a wealth of information on VitalMX. He seems very knowledgeable able and also just seems like a cool guy.

Ask for Sergio.  He can make you some crowns.  
He made me a set of angled crowns when I was curious about angled vs offset crowns.

 

Thank you, but I'm trying to stay in the US due to the possibility of shipping the fork out to accomplish this upgrade. Again, I appreciate it.
