Thanks for your replies Cranky and seager. I am in Australia so making a warranty claim may be tougher. Plus they are a couple of years old. Why on earth does the hole in the seat stay bridge face down? is that common or normal or sensible in any way?

I'm unsure if you could make a warranty claim if the mudguard has been modified ie drilled. On the V3 and earlier models the downward facing hole on the wishbone stays made sense to me, it certainly made the mudguard attachment neat. Now the wishbone stays have gone I'm not sure.

It's pretty normal on bikes designed with mudguards in mind, and there's no centre seatstay bridge brake hole, so it's the most logical place to put it.

I put an o-ring round the bolt between the mudguard and fixing hole in the frame.
