However although I have not tried them, I think these look better as the stays can be adjusted easier than the ones I have above which require cutting to the correct length which is a bit hit and miss. My stays are still too long. The Raleigh ones do have nice mud flaps on the ends though.

Or here cheaper and with free delivery :p

The alternative is to get more expensive ones from AM/Pashley though I hear mixed reports about them and breakages.
PS NOTE you will have to modify the front stays to take account of the suspension fork leading links (put a kink in them) so that they do not fowl them as they travel up and down. The AM/Pashley ones of course are supplied with correct shaped stays to overcome this.

Thanks, The mudguards you have are one of three models I have been looking into, the SKS Bluemels being the second. The third are the Zefal Paragons which look very similar to the Raleighs:

If the Bluemels are as long for the rear as the picture then I might prefer those, but these pictures seem to be generic publicity ones for all the SKS Bluemels and the only pictures of actual 20" ones I have found are Dahon specific which appear to be quite short at the back, but with a big mudflap:

I want something to replace the ones on my Pacific Reach which are OEM and are very short front and rear with no mudflaps. The front suspension is different to a Moulton in that it is trailing link, so there is no problem attaching the stays with a basic p-clip.
