Since Wen's bike build last year, many of you had commented that it is missing a pair of fenders for the rainy days. Rest assured, I did manage to install one during late summer last year before the arrival of British wet autumn!
It became a tad sophisticated as I went all out sourcing a very raw set of Honjo mudguards that came un-drilled (no holes), stays no pre-formed and no installation manuals! I did have a moment of regret during this installation. However, I accepted the challenge and thought I should have enough practical knowledge to make it work!
It was a fine line (somewhat ambitious) to source a 45mm width fenders to fit Wen's 40mm G-One tyres, whilst expecting no rub nor sound in the end. Determining the position of the holes relative to the bike was incredibly tedious as I only had one shot to get them right!
After a day and half of head scratching and tweaking, I finally finished with it and I must say I love the shiny silver appearance of the bike and cannot stop admiring them whilst Wen rides her Tempeh on the road.
Many mistakes and lessons learnt from this installation. Let me know if you have any questions I would be happy to answer.
