Huge pain to get the position correct and I probably won't ever do this again 😂

No drilling or screws necessary. The Sheldon Nuts make life much easier when mounting fenders.

Currently the bike has the stock size 28c tires and the rear tire is only a millimeter to two from rubbing the rear seat stay fender mount. Even the slightest bit out of true and the tire will rub. Should I ditch the fenders in favor of 30 or 32c tires or should I keep the fenders and maybe go down a tire size. Still waiting on Sheldon nuts to finalize the fender mounting locations.
