Re: [RBW] Break-away Fender Safety Options

Andrew,

I'm using a set of PDW stay ends on my VO fenders. They've held up great 
over the years. I set the screws in with loctite blue and was careful not 
to overtighten them.

I thought I wouldn't like the way they look but honestly they just 
disappear into the background.

I've used the PDW's in the past and they're pretty good, maybe a skosh 
over-priced. My only qualm with them is the tiny little setting screws used 
on their safety tabs to hold the stays in place. They're pretty easy to 
strip, but if you have some spare dual-pivot calliper brakes, you can use 
the centering adjustment screw as a replacement in a pinch. 

I can't confirm this since PDW doesn't post their stay diameter but it 
would a pretty nifty set up to just buy PDW's safety tabs and use them with 
VO fenders...

The "safety" tabs on my SKS plastic fenders worked loose (eventually, 
often) from rough roads/trails, which caused me far greater safety concern 
than the sticks that never went jamming in. Though with the brittle pine 
around here, the sticks easily snap, so a green or hearty wood might well 
have jammed when these broke.

That's useful information; thanks. But does anyone know of options for
6.5MM stays? -- the diameter of those on my Kelpies?

I know that Jan pooh poohs the danger of jamming with properly set up metal
fenders, even off road, but if I can find a workable QR option, I'd very
probably use it.

[RBW] Break-away Fender Safety Options

2020-07-01 Thread 'Deacon Patrick' via RBW Owners Bunch 
Looking into the options for metal fender break away safety, I find:

Rene Herse comes with Honjo R Clamps. Some reports are these can break away? 
Thoughts on that?  
https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/fenders/honjo-r-clamp/

Rene Herse also offers these, which are designed to break away: 
https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/fenders/berthoud-r-clamps/

The only other option I find is PDWs:
