Nice idea. Those tabs are designed to allow the front guard to cone loose if snagged. I'm not sure why it doesn't come on the guard. I assume they're meant for one or two uses only. Any idea about the longevity of these tabs.
I clean my bike 2-3 times a month and always remove the rear wheel to do so.
I simply put my guard on so there was greater clearance at the rear of the wheel by fiddling around with where I clamped the guard stay attachments.
