    I very much appreciate the time people like yourself take to make these instructional videos, on the strength of this I now have a set up and running, only issue I had from watching your video was the haunting tranquil background music which sent me off to sleep twice.

    hello thanks for the video. I have been using this fender set for about 1 year. But I have a problem. While cycling, the front fender rubs against the shoes in sudden turns. Normally, I have to keep the pedal at the top of the turns, I know this, but sometimes this is not possible. When the shoe rubs against the mudguard, the mudguard orbital adjustment is disturbed. The front fender starts to rub against the tire. this is very annoying. maybe you have a solution. :)

    Hi Alper, sorry to say there is no fantastic fix for this issue I’m afraid. This will be down to the space and Andre of you head tube and forks. I am unable to fit a mudguard to my Emonda due to not having the space. I also have the same issue with the SKS muddies on my Topstone, you just have to be careful when riding. Sorry I don’t have a fix but something we all have to deal with. Happy riding and thanks for the comment😊👍
