Hey guys thanks for all the responses,
1) Had considered a wooden bike but thought it was to much work overall.
2) Chain tugs for forward facing dropouts, i will take a look at a design but it would probably end up being quite impracticable both to make and use.
3) Redesigned handlebars, well I'm considering a more ergonomical handlebar with shaped hand grips. if that sounds good, although not radically redesigned.
4) A small easily removable mud/splash guard sounds pretty and ill definitely piece together a few designs.
and tommid you could just buy one you cheapskate!!
