Thinking of just drilling a hole in the fender and using some soft-ish washers for the attachment screw
I have just done this on the rear of mine (SKS bluemels). feels really solid and looks somewhat elegant. i actually used a few of the plastic washers that came with the mudguard. will see how long this lasts with/without cracking
still need to trim the rear stays. a friend has suggested cheap bolt cutters are the perfect tool. took me ages to trim the front ones with hacksaw
swedeee-
A dremel with a cutting disc did mine pretty easily.

Yep, boltcutters or dremel will be best, eye protection either way though :)

They the 35s over 28c? Looks great

Hello, your Strael looks great with the guards! I also have a Strael 3.0 and I'm in the process of fitting mudguards to it. Did your Strael come with the bolts for the eyelets? Or did you get them from SKS or somewhere else?

I´m about to fit some mudguards, most likely SKS bluemels.
Are there any elegant way to fit them to a bike with a vertical mount? Thinking of just drilling a hole in the fender and using some soft-ish washers for the attachment screw. Or will they crack after some use?
Standard they come with these fittings:
The other route would be GB or Velo Orange ones, a quite nice route.
