Tried fitting the rear guard to the front again, but it was proving too difficult. Because the part that bolts to the brake bridge on the rear can slide, when mounted to the fork crown, the guard would be able to slide unless I bolted the front to the rack. Right now I can’t be bothered doing that.
I ended up punching two holes in the Buddy Flap (the first was too high and the flap sat too low and scraped on the ground) and attached that to the front guard instead. Provides a really good amount of coverage to keep my feet dry. The guard still stops short under the crate, but If I am going to ride in the rain on this bike, I’ll just put everything in a dry bag in the crate.
