Hi all. I would love to own a Soma Smoothie ES, Surly Pacer or similar road bike with room for at least 28s and fenders, but I'm not too crazy about building another bike at the moment. My road bike barely has room for Michelin 28s and I would like to mount fenders. I was thinking that I could possibly make this work with a little modification to the fenders. This is what I came up with:
It probably wouldn't be the classiest way to mount them, but could would this be effective at keeping dirt/water off of my back and legs? Would it matter not having the little bit of fender hanging over in front of the front brake caliper? Please chime in with your thoughts.
ps - I've been called a hack by more than one person.
