Wondering if anybody else has had this problem with the "daruma" fork crown bolt that comes with some Honjo fenders.
Basically, the daruma includes a rubber washer that seals against the bottom of the fork crown; a metal fender washer sits between the rubber washer and the fender. After I installed the fenders and got in some miles in the rain, I noticed that the rubber washer was sealing the bottom of the fork crown and preventing water that got in there from draining out. In fact, the water was migrating upward (the only way it could go, really) and escaping around the stem. I checked with Velo Orange, who sold me the fenders, and they said they hadn't heard of this problem before, but that it could perhaps be remedied by drilling a hole through the washers. Has anybody else had this problem, and if so, how did you fix it? I'm concerned about water being trapped inside the steerer (I drained everything by disassembling the fender mount, but that's a pain to do on a regular basis). Thanks in advance. --Eric Sent from my iPad -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
