It's a 58 and P45 fenders. As mentioned above, I put pieces of urethane at the contact points. With the paint protected, I feel the squeeze may reduce any rattling. Happy enough with the result. PS: In the process, I realized I probably could have added a few more washers (or cork) movin

Kevin, What size Blue Sam frame is yours? I have a Blue 52 and the P45 Longboard fenders do not touch the chainstays. Are the fenders in your pics Longboards? They look more like the regular SKS fenders. If you want P45 Longboards, they may fit better, as they fit mine without touching the sta

You can cut a piece of chainstay protector, or if you email me your address I can drop a 3x5" sheet in the mail for you. Anton On Thursday, January 2, 2014 9:56:43 PM UTC-5, ted wrote: > > Anton, > Where do you find that clear vinyl tape? -- You received this message because you are subscrib

[RBW] Re: Fenders and chain stay clearance

I've done it two ways. On one bike the fender fit in there just a TINY bit snug. It barely touched, but it did touch on both sides. The pressure was so light that over bumps it would CLICK! and drive me nuts. For that bike I did a small indent, so there is a tiny bit of clearance and quieted

I have marked the area where the fenders are a bit wide and used a heat gun on low to soften the plastic. I use a dowel to replicate the approximate shape of the chainstay. You end up with a better fit and no pressure against the paint. Also I prefer it to cutting the fender, which helps fender
