I made the bracket out of a small piece of scrap stainless steel. It is approximately 1/2" x 3/4". I was getting a spring board effect with the front of the fender, the bracket has eliminated that problem.

So, your bike has 26" wheels? Even though Cody says that the fenders are one size fits all, I believe he also says that he cuts down the fenders to accomodate 26" wheels.

Nice job on building that frame. That is a good talent to have.
