* Silent

Cons:
* no hole for the seatstay bridge (more my problem than theirs - the clip would be sufficient on other bikes)
* super long stays - you have to cut them off.
sounds great! did some measuring and it seems the fenders won't fit between my chainstays....

how do others get around this? trim with tin-snips? grind wheel?
