Absolutely love the Albastache's, Ron. I've been bragging them up big time! I get to try the moustache on the QB (which Fed Ex claims will arrive Saturday, though I'm trying to not get my hopes up for earlier than Monday. I'm failing. Sardonic grin.). With abandon, Patrick On Thursday, May 15,

they do - I wasn't thinking about you getting snow - we were happy to get rain. How are the bars working for you? On Wednesday, May 14, 2014 4:09:16 PM UTC-5, Deacon Patrick wrote: > > Great, John! Let me know how you like them! They look pretty good with mud > too. Grin. > > With abandon, >

Follow up: On my 10 miles snow and mud dirt road ride the other day I had a great test of these fenders. Here's the photos: https://www.flickr.com/photos/32311885@N07/14000120310/ and https://www.flickr.com/photos/32311885@N07/14184178072/in/photostream/ Here's the text from the description of t

Very elegant solution! As you said, "Maavalus!" I hope you don't mind is I order my own set in a different wood, but nothing as "Maavalus" as your own. Cheers, John On Saturday, April 26, 2014 2:27:14 PM UTC-7, Deacon Patrick wrote: > > Here is the fender solution I worked out with Co

I love taking long weekends in New Mexico. I wish I could do more of them. With the higher speed limits+my lead foot it's only about 10 hours in the car now from Austin to Albuquerque. But anyway, great pics! Awesome wood fenders! On Sun, Apr 27, 2014 at 9:16 AM, Deacon Patrick wrote: > Cover

Coverage test: Success! no mud in my eyes, some side spray and perhaps a bit from the lack of fender in front of the fork, but very little compared with unfendered wet, sloppy rides. Back stayed completely dry and mud-free. Photos of coverage here and one to the left: https://www.flickr.com/phot

They offer recurve fenders, which curve around the diameter of the tire rather than being flat. Those would offer the best coverage (but are pricy). I like the flat because of their ability to clear rocks and debris that comes up with the tires, especially the knobbies. My goal with them is to
