I've got to say that I just wrap some bar tape and electrical tape round the bridge to stop it knocking and rely on the mudguard stays to keep it in place.
I've had SKS guards fail at that exact place as well, and if you email them with your receipt a few pics, they'll send you out a new set for free under warranty.
Fantastic customer service, especially as they're DE based.

Lots of excellent bikes again! It's the amazing the variety of builds that people come up with for this humble frameset. I see lots of fenders in the most recent posts.
Sadly, my SKS longboards recently cracked where I had drilled a hole through them to screw into the downward facing hole in the seatstay bridge on my v4.
Other than ensuring that tension on the fender is at a mininum, does anybody have a smarter suggestion for attaching fenders? It seems strange to me that the hole faces down on the seat stay bridge, as it makes installation and removal more difficult than necessary!
