Kinesis Fend-Off are great, albeit a little fiddly to mount but looks good and very sturdy when fitted and come with free mudflaps you can cut out and use if you want. They now do a wide version too that fits up to 700x50!tyres. Usually about £45-50 so cheaper than PDW as well. (Although PDW are obviously great if moneys no object)

Any body on here want a damaged Gillott Continental frame for £15. Can be saved no doubt if you have frame building skills or if your willing to spend a bit. The forks are bent, not sure if they. Can be straightened maybe or may need a new steerer column- I had a head on crash into the side of a delivery motor scooter a while back. Also, the top tube has a bit of a bend near the head lugs but this was their prior to the crash and it rode and handled fine, so could be replaced or not I guess. At the very least you prob want to inspect the head lugs under the paint for damage.
On the plus side, dropouts are new- had them fitted at Varhona Frameworks last year ( cost over £100) and it's full 531, and rode lovely) so if you have the skills or the inclination would make a beautiful vintage 50s Gillott n the end. 22 inch frame I think. ( I forget- need to check ).I would keep it and have it repaired later but have something else coming instead, and have no room for multiple unused and damaged frames to be stored, so need it gone really

I don't see how I can help technically as I effectively rather tech backwards, but I am more than happy to donate £10 every few months to help keep things going.
