Like Patrick, not a Roadeo, but a first iteration Rambouillet: Stampede 
Pass 32s (31 actual) under Honjo H-50 fenders. 

57mm max reach Shimano BR-600R calipers replaced with center mount Paul 
Racers to overcome closing of clearance around fenders when braking. 
Initial Honjo H-27 fenders (necessary to fit the calipers) were 
realistically too small for 32mm labled tires. Correct for 32mm tire H-50s 
were able to fit the tight rear end and be installed appropriately under 
the Paul calipers.

The Shimano caliper's asymmetric design caused the back arm (pivoted on 
center) to contact the rear fender under use, the front arm with its off 
center (outboard) pivot was fine. The Paul Racer dual pivot is symmetric 
and the arms' clearance of the fender/tire increases under use. A big fix 
in a small box.
