I've got a btwin triban 540 and a set of tortec reflective full length mudguards that ive "enjoying" fitting :twisted:
The mudguards didn't come with any washers with it.
The front mudguard keeps coming loose at all mounts, and taking the brakes with it :!: trying to work out the correct washer arrangement at the mounting points.
Is there a recommended type, and order for these things? I'm thinking I need to add some shakeproof washers in somewhere.

a bit of loctite on the bolt threads might be enough to keep things in place0
-
As above Loctite blue or shake proof washers, though you may need longer allen screws depending on what type of shake proof washers you use.0
-
yes, spring or serrated washers should help it stay together, alternatively some loctite etc on the threads0
