Fender Mounts That Connect To V-Brake Bosses?
Maybe I've been drinking too much coffee again... but it seems to me like there
must be a lot of bikes out there that have disc brakes but still have v-brake bosses on the forks/frame. Given that, it seems that by now somebody should have designed interface brackets that bolt onto the v-brake bosses and allow mounting a fender. Using that scheme, the fenders would move with the suspension - so they could be much closer to the wheels and wrap around more - giving better coverage...maybe with less width. ?? -- PeteCresswell |

Per JD:
Fenders are for commuter and cruiser bikes. And those who don't like the idea of inhaling droplets of goose turds and whatever else has crapped on the trail... -- PeteCresswell |

Oh, I forgot, real men who ride in deserts and mountains don't need water bottles...or water for that matter |
