Honjo Questions on my Moto Grand Jubilee
SO I put some Honjo's on my Moto. They still need some adjustment. What do you guys do about attaching the rear fender to the little bridge behind the bottom bracket? There didnt seem to be any provisions for this and as a result the fender can move around a little bit back there. Also, do I have the rear fender stays attached wrong where they attach at the dropout? I still need to trim them but I was waiting until I was sure I had it set up right.
Here's some pics. Also included is my new set of Panaracer Pasela's in 27x 1/18th. I'm still on the lookout for a nice stronglight crank. I'm also going to swap the bars out for something wider so I can more comfortably actually use the bike. I plan to just take the bars and levers off and save them in case i ever want to return it to original since that stuff on there now is in such good shape. ANyhow, pics:
oh and, does anyone have a nice front berthoud bag they want to give me?

Motos seem to be emerging as my favorite looking French bike. They are stylish but simple and elegant.
The Honjo fenders definitely don't hurt either.

[/QUOTE]I have a VO Ostrich bag I am letting go. I have the rain cover as well. I never used it. PM me if you are interested.
The bike and fenders look great. I have used a wine cork as a spacer. I am not that anal about fender lines.
