@nev yep - been good fun so far. Had a guy stop me on the street yesterday and offer to buy the bike off me for a princely sum of £40. I politely declined.

Re: guards - I've found these which should fit http://www.spacycles.co.uk/products.php?plid=m2b62s80p387 - 65mm width will be tight but give enough clearance for daily use.

Will post some pics now I've added the Midge bars and bar end shifters. New front rack in the post as well. Hoping for better weather tomorrow so I can head up to Epping Forest with the mtb tyres.

Re mudguards: been running 65mm bluemels on 2.35 Big Apple's with plenty of clearance. Ogre 18"
Had to cut the stays a bit to get both front and rear closer to the tyres. Also a little extension under the fork for same reason but mainly to allow front rack/basket.

Hi. Mudguards arrived yesterday. Look like they should be ok but need to get some brake bolts so I can attach them to the frame. How did you make an extension as ill be running a front rack as well?
