I have the Zeppelins on my Quickbeam. I manipulated: squeezed, squoze
and pinched them to fit between the chainstays. They have about 6" of
below-the-stay drop, but you could also end the fender right AT the
stays, and spend your time rigging a bolt and mount.

Thomas,
You are correct that I bought the 48 mm fluted. In the rear they fit
with about 1mm to spare between the chainstays. The 52 mm zeppelins
would require bending to get them to fit in that location. They may
fit between the seat stays and fork crown as is.

Hi, Ohio Mike!
I presume you refer to the 48mm "fluted" fenders currently available
from VO.

Do you think the 52mm "zeppelin" fenders from VO would also fit on the
bike?

Well, my Hillborne has been set up from the get-go with SKS fenders.
Probably the 50. Don't remember now. Tires have mostly been the
Schwalbe Marathon Supreme 40s. No problems at all with the fit of the
tires under the fenders. Pretty sure I just used the stock front
mounting but bent the hange
One last remark on my fenders: I think mine may have been 45s after all; VO
had them on sale a while back. I think I was confusing these with the 35s on
my Motobecane.

Hi, Patrick. Love your Hillborne pictures. Is that a Hebie double
kickstand mounted on it in one of the photos? Did it mount nicely to
the kickstand plate?
When you say 60s are wide, are you talking about the Berthoud
stainless 60mm fenders in particular?
With some fenders, I'd agree that 60mm wo

Regarding (3): I mounted the VO 48 mm aluminum fenders on a 60 cm
Hillborne (700C) and had no problems. Width-wise they are a perfect
fit. I am currently running 35.5 mm wide tires and could safely go to
40 without any clearance issues, maybe even wider. I just used the
supplied hardware to mount t
