Turns out I used two 700C wheels to test with instead of the 650B and 700C
I thought I had grabbed. Both are obviously 700C.

I would not be surprised if the general product line was mix and match.
I've installed metal 650B fenders, 40 and 50 mm wide, as well as 700C PB
polycarb fenders, on this same, 26" wheel bike, and the front I received
just required too much massaging to be 650B.
I'm glad they got at least one of y
Lynne: Thanks; they do look good. I just hope that I removed enough of the
tension that they last a few Ks of miles.
Alas, someone has claimed the scraps.

That does look nice.
Have you got a use for that fender scrap? If not, I will happily take it off
your hands...

I received mine today. The front is for 650B the rear 700C. You know what
they say about "sounds too good to be true". The people at Clymb were easy
to deal with and are paying for the return shipping.

They came with all standard hardware; $64.95, second day shipping
(Priority). The only problem is that (I am 9/10 positive) they are 700C
instead of 650B. Oh well,

Wow!
That sounds like an impossibly low price, unless they were clearance and
came without hardware. Did they come with hardware?
I see they have some 700c fenders there for 44$?!?!?!?!?!

Thanks for the compliments.
Steve, I'll post load photos eventually. The other day I rode home with ~25
lb in one pannier; it wasn't ideal but it was certainly manageble.

I think it looks very nice Patrick. Fendering a bike with horizontal
dropouts is always challenging. I have considered shortening a rear fender
myself. Since I almost never ride with a group in the rain, the added
length has no value add. My thought has been to have a rack that

Thanks. All of this retrospective effort to turn this wonderful bike into a
sort of integrated (integrating racks, wiring, fenders) fun to ride but
useful errand bike has shown me concretely that so integrating a bike
requires a lot more than simply knowing what you'd like it to do and a lot
more t
Turned out beautifully. Those racks are top notch in the look department. I
hope all the work pays off & these fenders last ya.

Am I misunderstanding something? It looks to me like you've got the fenders
reversed: Front fender mounted on rear wheel, and vice versa. At least
that's the way my 700c Honjos lay out; otherwise, the rear fender isn't
long enough to install a fender-mount light.
Granted, undoing all that work
Speaking of fenders: I see that VO has 63 mm 29er fenders. Too bad they are
aluminum; I much prefer Planet Bike-type polycarb for abuse; my PB 60s can
be mashed, slashed, bashed, hashed, and thrashed and come back smiling.
They *will* bend if left under pressure in a car trunk in a hot SW summer;
