125mm compatible threshold?

I may be getting some 125mm wheels soon so is there anyway to fit a 125 wheel into a threshold? Should I move the brake foward or make a new one?
Also, the only 125 forks I can get are threaded, I know you aren't meant to run them with scs but if I do will there be anything major wrong with it?
 
The threaded forks are usually have thin tubing which makes it easy as f%*k to snap especially if used as an SCS but i don't think theres anything wrong with moving the break back and if you need to, give it a little back so it fits fine. Also you may need to tamper with your break and bend it up to give it that extra room for the 125mm wheel. hope that helps =]

I've already got the forks off a friend, he was running them with scs fine.
I'll look into moving, bending or making a brake. How strong are the tsi brakes? Because i snapped a saci brake by bending it.

you should definetely fill in the threads with jb weld before you use them with the scs.
And I'm pretty sure you will have to cut the actual deck to fit 125's.
I've also heard that its like impossible to bend a tsi flexy.
Overall, its probably not worth it.
 
Off topic, but

How light are thresholds, because im riding a v2i right now? I just learned bri airs but would i lose them?

But my Friend said they both weigh 3.1 pounds

so yeah, ya'll are high if you think only the new tsi's will fit 125 wheels. Its obvious that my v1 has enough room. The brake is the too small however. It'd work fine with a bigger brake
