So I am saving the fender struts since they are already cut to length. On these fenders I had drilled a hole to line up with a thread on the cross bar where rim brakes would be mounted, if there were rim brakes. The hole points down towards the fender and is no doubt intended to be a support for a fender and not for rim brakes. The tear in my fender was 5 inches away from this hole.
