Anyone know what kind of 'guards will fit this bike? Seems to be next to no clearance between frame and wheels (700x23 tyres).

Suggestions please.

Ta.

    I'm sure if you just ask ChrisBL4 nicely he'll fit one for you, unless, horror of horrors, it really is true that he doesn't actually make the bikes himself

    If there's enough clearance for a 5mm allen key then Crud Roadracer II will fit. I fitted a pair yesterday and it was a lot easier than I had anticipated. Not much faffing around as they just seemed to fit perfectly 1st time. On my 10 mile test ride in the howling wind and rain they were quiet and effective. Very impressed.

    I like the look of the new SKS raceblade longs, Not as good coverage as cruds still but easier mounting and will probably last longer.

    I'm on my second set of Cruds, think I'll be putting them back on again soon.
