Had a thought on my commute home tonight regarding the mudguards. I realised that my Rockhopper dad bike has got a set of Zefal Paragon C50’s on it that are barely used. They should easily cover the 700x40c tyres I currently have. I also think I have a spare set of stays from when I built up my Paconi as a commuter with another set of them as well because I got sent two sets of guards with only one set of mounting hardware. I might see if I can run them until I get the VO guards. They also don’t dent from the bike racks and are jet black. I know once I build this bike up it will rain everyday and I’ll want to ride it.
EDIT: I checked when I finally got home. I still have the stays to run 700c mudguards (I cut the stays on the dad bike because they’re 26” wheels), so I’ll use the Zefal mudguards for now. I also found this sweet sticker that I thought I lost. That will be trimmed and will go on as well.
