Any success stories for mounting metal guards for a rear wheel with no mounting points. No bridge on the seatstays or down by the bb either. Have mounting points on the fork so front end is covered.
Eg. using some of those PDX qr things or VO fender stay mounts and using some burly zip ties across each chainstay to fix the guard in place at the bb. Heli tape the chainstays/bb to preserve paint and give the tie something to grip into.
Looking for any helpful tips as I basically can‘t be bothered to ride a bike without proper fender these days.
Probably would use the wider Kinesis fend off 700c as they’re reasonable compared to 650b VO‘s on my other bike.
