Re: [RBW] Hunqapillar fender options
Thanks very much; those show me what I wanted to know. And thanks to the person who posted the Crust photos -- the bent stays are exactly what I'll need to do.

Re: [RBW] Hunqapillar fender options
This... https://theradavist.com/2018/11/philly-bike-expo-2018-crust-noreaster-with-microshift-12-speed-eagle/#18 ... is, to me, one of the most beautiful bicycles I've seen in a long time. There you see the bent stay. Fairly certain these are the Flat 65s. The Antelope Hill is 55-622. Not sure if the stay used is what came with the set, but at least you know now that it can be done. And really, Matt (Crust Bikes) is a genius.

Re: [RBW] Hunqapillar fender options
Another question about the Simworks fenders: Any idea if one can get longer-than-usual front stays? The reason is that I'd have to do some fancy bending to get the stay to clear the leftside disc caliper; the SKS stay was barely long enough to do this. Tx. *And* I see that Simworks offers very pretty titanium fenders, if you've got the cash. (I'd prefer the ti to the brass.) I wonder how easy it is to reshape the curve to fit 559-size wheels -- not that aluminum isn't good enough for me!

I've used VO Zeppilen with 45mm Marathons, SKS Velo with a variety of tires. I'm happiest with the SKS P65 and Schwalbe Big Ben 50mm tires. That makes it a very versatile bike.

Re: [RBW] Hunqapillar fender options
I'll be interested in learning of others' experience for such fendering. The SKS 65s are just barely wide enough to clear the 700C X 60 Big Ones on my Matthews; there's ample (1 cm) top clearance, but the sides, notably the SKS/Planet Bike-type strut fittings, crowd the sidewalls. I'd be interested to learn if VOs might work better? Note: The SKS's replaced Planet Bike 65s. The PBs had a rounder profile that crowded the BOs a great deal more. The SKS's have a squarer profile that clears the sidewalls by a bit more, but even more still would be better. Once again, kudos to Chauncey Matthews for delivering on my request of "60s, fenders, and reasonable Q." Q is 160 with 130 mm spindle, but suspect 126 workable, and certainly 127.5.

[RBW] Hunqapillar fender options
Hey RBW list, I have been thinking about fendering my 62 cm Hunq and am curious about folks experience with max tire size w fenders and which fenders work best for the Hunqapillar. I'm hoping to run Schwalbe G-One speed tires in 29x2.35 size on Cliffhanger rims. For fenders maybe the VO 63mm fluted fender? Or the 60mm Berthoud? The Berthoud is spec-ed for a 2.35" tire, the VO specs a 2.2" tire but I'm wondering if that might be just differences in the companies suggested tire-fender clearances. Anyone a similar combo on their Hunq? What tires/fenders did you run? I'm open to suggestions beyond what I have listed and while I'd prefer a metal fender I'd do plastic if needed as I have found they generally allow a bigger tire in my limited experiences fendering my bikes. My Hunq is a green one with the larger clearances. Thanks!! Kurt in Oakland -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
