Thanks. I thought I'd heard of using some sort of heat blower -- will a hair dryer get hot enough?
I do have the front mounted using the riveted mounting tab, with this attached rather rearward to a Sheldon brake bolt nut, but I want to keep this for ease of removal -- these fenders are strictly seasonal. Note that I've got the fender shoved upward as far as the crown will allow. The Riv does have a threaded boss under the crown, but as the fender as now mounted is flat against the bottom of the crown, there is no advantage to re-mounting. The trouble lies in the crowing under the crown which forces the fender closer to the tire than further aft where, free from such constraint, it can follow a slightly larger curve-- this excacerbated, of course, by forcing a 700C fender to follow the line of a tire 1" smaller in radius. I'll get out the blow drier and see if I can do something about it.
