Fenders for Cannondale
I have a mid 80's vintage Cannondale road bike, with calipers. I am running Tufo S33 pro's in 24mm width (closer to 26mm width, if you measure it), and about 8mm clearance on the brake calipers. I'm looking for a set of fenders that won't rub the tires. I have no mounts on the fork, and only 2 mounts at the dropouts. Also, because it's a Cannondale, that bridge between the chainstays is extra-wide, and the front derailleur cable comes within 5mm of the rear tire. As a result, I assume that any clip or clamp down by the chainstays will not work, and I'm fully prepared to shorten the fender just above the front derailleur if needed, and clamp it to the seat tube.
What are my options?
