This Fender is a Studio Bass Amp which weighs in at a hefty forty-seven kg.



From a blog post (not mine).

@tiredhands, check out the Spanninga Pixeo tail light. It's made for fender mounting, though it comes with a mount you can use elsewhere. I don't have experience with a fender-mounted headlight yet.

I just purchased a B&M Classic front and Secula rear set from that xxcycle.com store you recommended a while ago!

Here's another, albeit very different, Raleigh that also fits 35s and fenders (gotta love 27"-700c conversions!)

They'll be great. I'm glad I could help. I happen to be looking at that site now. It's a little rough as a web site, but the selection and prices are good, and I have no complaints about the service, either. Some items are not fully translated from French. Some are not translated accurately. Prices are only in Euros. But it's good enough for me. I use xe.com to figure the currency exchange rate.

I've had several Spanninga tail lights including the Pixeo and wouldn't recommend them at all. They're all prone to failure and pale in quality compared to the Fenderbot, which not only is brighter, but has far sturdier internal parts. The flimsy sheet metal battery contacts Spanninga uses simply suck, and their on/off switches break as well. I replaced all my Spanningas with Fenderbots last year.

Thanks for the heads-up @palincss. I'll keep using mine until it fails.

Bike came with a downtube protector/mudguard, and LBS was kind enough to give me a free rear mudguard they had. It's more aimed for 25-28mm tyres though and my bags/jackets are properly speckled by mud by the end of a good ride.

Looking for mudguard suggestions

My Biria with Shimano Nexus 8 speed does real well in the rain.
I got soaked on the way home after this shot in a local park. But only from
the rain, the road spray was pretty much handled.
Even my bell was muted by the downpour. But I loved it

And a great example of how not to take a bike portrait!.

Welcome! Interesting cockpit setup on your Fuji. If you haven't already, you should start a Classic & Vintage thread on your Fuji build.

Ahh... I missed the “From a blog post (not mine).” tidbit in the pic/post above of a bike hauling the ~Fender~ bass cabinet. Whoops!

Finally mounted the front fender properly with the fork crown daruma bolt. My fears of clearance issues were set aside once I found the BF thread on dimpling the fender first to fit the fork crown:

My most recent fendered bike, the 1965 Dilecta LeBlanc touring bike resurrected from a fixie conversion years ago. It was a splendid opportunity to dig around for some French parts. The fenders, Zefal/Mtl and are a strong and light lamination of metal and plastic. Two pairs were received with some frames last fall.
