Thanks for all the responses! Good to know that it won't be a problem. The first brevet of the season is tomorrow!

Here is a link for some pix.  Sorry for the crappy quality.

I mounted them with Sheldon's Fender Nuts, in case anyone is interested.

I commuted for many years with a mud flap that was a couple of inches

roof top carrier, but other than that, no problem.

Hi all,

I just installed a set of Longbard fenders on my 60cm Rambouillet.
The bottom of the front rubber mudflap is only 2 inches off the
ground, which seems low to me.  On a brief test ride this morning, I
noticed that it does catch on the edge of a curb when riding off of
one.  But that in itself doesn't appear to be such a big deal because
the rubber is flexible.

Does anyone see any potential problems with the bottom of the fender
being so low?  I am really only riding on the road - no trails or
anything like that.

Thoughts?
Steve
