I'm cross posting in case some on the RBW list don't subscribe to iBob, and because, of course, zip ties are an Official Rivendell Topic.
I've mounted P Bike fat fenders on my 29er, which doesn't have any fender braze ons. Moreover, the seat- and chainstay bridges are flat plates, not tubes. So I've attached the front struts to the fork legs with two zip ties per strut; at the rear, double zips at both bridges and a single one at the end of the Velo Orange bag support to hold the end of the truncated rear fender instead of struts. Given (1) that plastic gets brittle in the cold, and it's cold here; and (2) that the bridges are plates and thus relatively thin of edge: how durable might this attachment setup be? (I have packed extra zip ties in the Nelson.) I should just get some fat P clamps for the fork legs, but what other methods of attachment might I use for the bridge-plates? The rear fender has no metal brackets, just holes for the zip ties. Wire? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
