Wav, are you planning to modify the rear PB fender to be more folding friendly. Since I don't own the fenders yet, can you tell if I will be able to easily cut the rear down and retain the useful coverage.

I just let the seatpost hit the fender. It is only a fender and easily replaced if I need to and at minimal cost. My only change has been a little piece of black electrical tape where it might contact the fender. I personally don't want to sacrifice any coverage at all!
