Anyone know what this part from a SKS mudguard kit is called?

Hello folks. I have a set of SKS mudguards that are mounted at a bit of a distance from my front tyre due to a high fork crown. A friend spotted this and mentioned that his Bluemels kit came with a little part intended to extend the connection between the L-shaped bracket at the top of the front mudguard, and the fork crown. A picture is attached – can anyone tell me what this is called, so I might be able to find a generic part somewhere and buy one?

Thanks!

Never been lucky enough to receive that in with any of the SKS guards I've bought, usually have to make my own by drilling two, inevitably wonky holes in a bit of stainless and filing it into shape.

Would the Problem Solvers fender flute work? Illustrated by woefully fitted mudguard but you get the idea, goes inside the steerer at the top:

Thanks everyone – @Alan_tbt I think the middle part of that little kit might be the closest thing. Good spot!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
