This thread got a little side tracked and I would like to comment again that the graphic fenders look amazing with the grilver roadino frame.

Plus one on the cork method! It's natural, structurally closed cell, the surface can be sealed with a coat of shellac and is lighter than manufactured spacer materials. Yeah, it's not necessary if your frame's stay bridge can be reached with a couple stacked leather washers for optimal fender line. Personalization possible via choice of product originally plugged by your fender spacer and its imprint, as the Deacon points out.

Re: [RBW] Re: Fendered Roadini
No spacer, cork or otherwise, needed on my build. I just used one of the leather washers at the chainstay bridge. The cork spacer is a nice included item with the Mud Butlers. The other nice thing about these fenders is that the seat stay clamp is plasti-wrapped making for a silent install. Every set of metal fenders should include this thoughtful part.

Re: [RBW] Re: Fendered Roadini
Or, if you prefer something in silver, head to your local Ace hardware and buy an aluminum spacer or two. Works great.

[RBW] Re: Fendered Roadini
I would advise to call the website number and talk to Cody Davis, whom is both the guy whom both answers the phone and builds the fenders. He is super nice and an amazing craftmen who will set you up right. I have woody's on two of my bikes and love them. But also be advised that you may need to use the "wine cork method" to get the back fender to fit right. PM me if you need details.

That’s really sweet looking. Good move to install the fenders. For sure they enhance the appearance. The silver grilver is cool too.
