Sweet! Love that color and the orange is a nice contrast. Is that one of Henry III's roll up bags? Looks perfect with that bike.

My 27" wheeled Speedster
Originally came with Schwinn 26" S6 (I believe) wheels but I bought it from someone who laced a 3 speed SA hub to a set of 27" hoops. Bike is much quicker and more nimble that the 26" wheel version and is fun to ride.
Had chrome fenders but I replaced them with a set of old plastics I had hanging in the shop.
Only downside is the previous owner laced the hub to a Schwinn Varsity Extra-Heavy Never Stop Rim.
I already replaced the front with an alloy wheel and will have the SA hub laced to an alloy soon. I didn't calculate the weight loss but figure it will be in pounds as those steel rims are heavy metal.

2000 Joe Starck-built Rivendell road custom with Grant-inspired zip-tied SKS fenders, since sold -
2002 Mercian Vincitore custom road fixed-gear - this one has built-in through-fender bolt mounts inside the fork crown and under the brake bridge. I zip-tied the fender at the chainstay bridge. The front fender flap is cut from a milk carton and zip-tied in place. It works.
c.1962 Dawes Realmrider, also since sold, with vintage Bluemels Club Specials, including the original factory mudflap up front -
