I've thought of that and would say "no" unless your fender has a second pair of struts supporting the forward end or unless it is secured to the underside of a rack; and even in those cases, only with metal fenders. I've seen very light, old lamps that an unsupported metal fender might support long term without damage, but the Edeluxe is quite a bit heavier than these, as are also the Cyos and the Fly.
Note that I have in mind Berthoud ss fenders as well as Honjo and VO aluminum ones.
