Anyone else using 45mm Chromoplastics and Tektro mini Vs?

I find that on the front the mudguard fouls (love that word) the brakes so that they skew annoyingly to one side. I took the rubber thingie off on the back and that sorted out the issue, but on the front the metal...thingie...between the brake arms rubs the top of the guard.

It's not that big a deal but it stops the brakes being adjusted properly.

Can you lower the mudguard slightly, either by filing the bracket or using a bit of Meccano or something as an extension?

I had chromoplastics and TRP CX9s, the cable and noodle-holder made contact with the top of the guard but didn't cause problems adjusting them.

I might have to get a bit of Meccano I think.

It's not a great deal of contact but enough to push the left-hand arm outwards as the metal noodle holder "slides" down the curved outer of the guard. Perhaps I have to set the adjuster screws hard right to hold the arms in place...
