P.S.: If you can, can you post a photo of the rear chaincase mounting bracket that goes to the inside of the chainstay? My Gazelle Whale has a braze-on there - yet, the chaincase does not mount to it; it fits onto a really terrible tab that sits loose on the hub axle (you have to index it while tightening the hub down). I want to see if I can find a replacement case that will fit that braze on and avoid the terrible design I'm dealing with now.
Lol, never thought of that. XD

Sure ,I'll probably build up the chain case again next weekend. As for the tab, I think most full chaincase designs have a double tab that gets mounted between the bottom bracket and the frame. It's simply the most sturdy design. Alternatives are hockey-style guards that attach using big p-clips like old French chainguards or Velo Orange's model.
