So much good info here! Giant thanks to everyone who has chimed in! Jacob, thanks for taking the extra time to take photos! And everyone else with the links and advice, what a great list!
I guess the flat 65 is the front runner right now. A little more than I originally hoped to spend but isn't that always the way..... Drw, one of the main differences between metal and plastic fenders (at least to me) is metal fenders usually have a rolled lip along the edge that prevents water from flowing out the sides and blowing back on you. I think plastic fenders are easier to install and safer as many have quick releases and can flex a bit if something jams them. So each has its merits. Also metal just looks way nicer imo. Peter, Please post back with your results! And that Noreaster is one of the coolest bikes I have ever seen! Thanks!
