Peter,
Nice work. The bikes look great.
I see you're running center pull brakes instead of the Tektro side pulls. Do
you think that's giving you more clearance? Would I be well off to switch the
brakes before adding the fenders?

I did start with the Tektro silvers and found the center pulls gave me a
bit more room with the fenders. Most importantly they didn't squeeze the
fenders when I braked like the silvers did.

Thank you, Peter.
Time to order up, I guess.

I have a set of the Mod 750s in my much too large bin in the basement, free
for the price of shipping, 10 bucks I figure. They don't have pads though,
I recycled them onto another ride. Let me know offlist.

To add, VO fenders are pre-drilled as contrasted to the Honjos that gives
me more convenience and headache free installation. Can't speak for
Berthouds as I never had them.

I have had both Honjos and VO's. The Velo Orange are a great deal
comparatively speaking and like Alex said come pre-drilled. I know it has
been said that some VO fenders only have one Daruma attachment on the rear
but the 52mm Zeppelins def have two just like Honjos. Back in the day VO
didn't
Does anybody have any experience fitting the 52mm VO Zeppelin fenders to a
Homer over 42mm Hetres?
Thanks,

Re: 52mm Zeppelins over Honjos on a Homer. Took some fiddling but it is
possible, again some fiddling could mean 1 hour, could mean 1 day depending
on your handiness, def not an easy setup job but it comes out looking nice.
See picture in my Flikr feed.
VO even has a 58mm version of its 650B fenders now. Smooth only, though.

Hi David,
Yes, I did have the experience with installing Zeppelins for Hetres on 650b
specific bike. It took me some time like Peter pointed out but it came out
perfectly, beyond my expectations. You should not have any issues with the
installation as long as you have plenty time on your hands

Thanks Steve.
I just realized that I had somewhat of an advantage because the Saluki has
canti brakes that gave me more room to work around, less error prone.
Nevertheless the job can be done with side pull brakes given more time.
Again, perfection is the virtue of patience.
