Spent most of the afternoon today wrestling, er, installing the Velo-Orange 49mm fluted-style alloy fenders on my brand-spankin' new 59x700C Kogswell. I think it's actually ready to ride, and then I get to futz with the handlebar/stem arrangements...! Click on the photo for a bunch more.

  3. For mudflaps, I've made some out of 1/8" thick sheet rubber available at most hardware stores. I epoxy glued one end of the flap to the fender clamping with a cork on the inside. The I through bolted the flap with a stainless steel bolt/nut. You can see some of these on this vintage Fuji Palisade I rebuilt as a randonneuse:
