Is this possible. If so, any framebuilders in Surrey you can recommend?
Enigma
Hi. I'm having my old Merlin Taiga modified at the moment. I'd give Enigma a wide birth on cosmetic grounds. Instead I've got the legend (he's in the mtn bike hall of fame!) Steve Potts form Point Reyes, California doing mine right now. Have a look at his website (just google Steve Potts bicycles). He can remove the old canti-mounts without leaving a trace and has a specially designed disc mount which dissipates the stress along the seatstay. He's also altering my cable routing ready for Alfine 11 speed and beadblasting the whole frame. You'll need fairly deep pockets though and shipping the frame over there ain't cheap. If you do decide to use him I might have a neat wooden bike frame shaped packing crate to lend you once mine comes back home.
Maybe a long-shot, but when I did the MBL training at Cyclewise, one of the guys on the course had an old Kona Hei-Hei ti hardtail that he'd had modified for discs. Can't remember his name now, but the Rich or Craig would know as he was a mate of theirs. If you can't afford the cost of the US builder maybe give them a call. May turn out to be Enigma, can't remember though. It looked a decent job to me though.
