Picked up some Sheldon's Nuts today. And ordered my White Hetres. Pretty excited for them to come in. Hoping my current fenders will fit them - if not I'd like to stay true with Berthouds but may have to go VO. -Justin On Feb 19, 5:09 pm, Erik C wrote: > Justin, > > I'm running vo 52 zepplin fen

Hey Justin, I use a pair a Sheldon Fender Nuts to attach the SKS fenders over the Hetres on my Bleriot. This works well with the L-bracket connection at the brake bridge. -Jay B On Feb 19, 10:57 am, Justin August wrote: > Hey folks- > Now that the white and red Hetres are back in stock I'm get

I'm also looking for a cleaner attachment system for the fenders. What fenders/rear mounting does she use? -Justin On Feb 19, 1:06 pm, Steve Palincsar wrote: > On Sat, 2011-02-19 at 09:57 -0800, Justin August wrote: > > Hey folks- > > Now that the white and red Hetres are back in stock I'm getti
