Hi!
Just seen your post about fitting the mudguards to the steamroller, you’re not wrong about requiring patience. Not sure how much the local bike shop would have charged as taken about three days to fit the rear one and still the front stays to go! Just wondering what sort of clips you used on the front forks please? Grateful for any pointers, trying to fit Berthoud mudguards… thanks

I run Goldtec hubs on mine so rather than a QR type setup, I have M5 bolts. So for mounts I bought these from Freshtripe

They have a QR version too

I also used a daruma bolt in the fork

It was a bit of a faff but it is solid.
Worth noting that I did drop down to 25mm tyres to squeeze everything in. But once set up, it has been pretty rock solid.
Did you get an answer? I have 35mm VO hammered mudguards on mine.
The were very, very, very fiddly to set up. You will need an abundance of patience.
