What kind of spring? Hardware store or more special than that?

[RBW] Installing Fenders Question
So I installed some SKS fenders on my wife's bike and you know the rear fender how it attaches to the bike near the kickstand bottom bracket area? Well in cases where it creates a big gap between the fender and the tire is there any type of spacer that can be purchased to go between the fender and where it attaches so that it doesn't look awful? The rest of the fender looks fine and then there is that big gap at that point. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Installing Fenders Question
Best solution is to take the cork from a bottle of wine and trim it so it gives you the proper spacing. Then just drill it so you can use a screw/nut of the proper length. On the SKS fenders, you may have to remove the metal tongue that is meant to hook over the tube between the stays and avoid using a screw if my memory serves me well...
