I just finished the install this evening. I needed to slightly squish the rear fender at the chain stay mount and do the same for the front fender with the fork. Clearance wasn’t compromised however it added a certain level of difficulty to the front fender install. I still need to finish adjusting the spacing/alignment in the front, and I’m quite satisfied with the rear fender. I’ll be sure to snap some photos in the daylight tomorrow for reference.
