I'm with Edwin. I have P55s on mine with 48mm tires (not quite 2"). They fit easily and look great, but I too could've fit the P65's and I'm getting some splash out the side in stouter puddles since the tire fills so much of the fender. If I was doing it again, I'd get the 65s. Just be sure and read Riv's note about the one fender not being defective because it's got a space cut out of it, that's just part of the fender at that size to fit the frame.
Rather than rubber plugs at the kickstand plate I just used a longer bolt with a few nuts on it to split the spacing difference between getting the wheel out and maintaining my fender line. On the 52cm I had to bend the mounting tab on the rear fender's positionable bracket to match the angle of the seat stay bridge's boss. Didn't really have another troubles getting them in there, massive fender clearance is one of the Clem's strengths after all ;) On Thursday, November 19, 2015 at 2:20:30 PM UTC-5, Edwin W wrote: > > If you are thinking of getting the SKS fenders that Riv sells: On the little > Clem > <https://www.flickr.com/photos/90785999@N06/albums/72157661094042625/with/22756172020/> > > I built up, I put p55s on there with Panaracer Pasela 26x1.75.
