Bluemels Airweight
Scored these fenders off a wreck of a yard sale find. I'm on the fence about using them, and I'm curious about what they're worth. What do you guys think?

I have a couple of sets: one came stock on my '49 Raleigh Clubman, the other in a trade (and those were from the 1970s, I believe). I have no idea of value, but they are relatively rare and nice fenders.

No one cares
I just scored a set on eBay for $50 buy it now without any mounting hardware. Maybe I paid a little more than I should have but they were nos in original packaging and I think they're cool looking. Considering what the plastic ones go for it should br considered a decent deal I think.

Cool! I traded my set to RobE30 without the mounting hardware for the rear, maybe you could talk to him about mounting solutions. I think he was going to try to make some stays himself.

I had seen the stays for sale alone on ebay, that was my plan. But I'll check with Rob for any other ideas too.

I have a set on my VSX, they take a ludicrous shine. Standard fender stays and daruma bolts fit just fine.
