Wanted: A little something for my stays

I'm not even sure what these things are called. I recently bought some mid-eighties mudguards, not realising they were missing some pieces. I need the small, thingy-whatsits that go on the end of the stays to attach them to the frame. None of the LBS's near me have any.

Can anyone help me?

Can anyone at least tell me what these things are called so I can stop looking like a fool?

Cheers, Tom

Or just use cable ties ... Cheaper, lighter (!) and don't work loose

Available for a tidy sum on flea bay- search on mudguards

I got some, but was gobsmacked at the price, but they did job- silly me for losing the originals :-(

Bless you, Chris Gee. Now I'll be able to cycle in the rain again. Joy!

Actually, i don't think they are what I need. Bugger. I'll get a photo, I'm obviously never going to be able to adequately explain what I'm after.

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

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

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