I used the black safety releases that come with the set of SKS fenders. I thought I'd use the feature more than I do, but found that when set up so that I have clearance in all three gear combos, there's enough give in the fender that it doesn't even pop out when I drop the wheels out (with JB's) I'm fenderless right now, but when set up, it looks like this - http://www.cyclofiend.com/ssg/2007/ssg017r3-cyclofiend0107.html (And the fenderline was improved a little this past winter from the photos - but my main goal is to set it up so I can run three gear combos.) - Jim -- Jim Edgar [email protected] Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Your Photos are needed! - Send them here - http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines "I threw one leg over my battle-scarred all-terrain stump-jumper and rode several miles to work.
