 I recently bought my wife a 54cm ca. 1995 Rivendell. I'm in the process of
 installing some 40mm Tanaka alloy fenders and I am battling with the
 minimal clearance for fenders offered on the bike. I'm using 28mm Gran Bois
 Cerf tires. I bought some River City Reacharounds as there simply isn't
 enough clearance on the rear so I needed to cut the fenders. Looks like the
 front will also need to be cut. Not enough room for a crown daruma.

 The rear fender is pretty much in place but the fender line is funky. I'd
 love to hear other folk's solutions. Thanks in advance.

Re: [RBW] Fender install on Riv

Matt-

I have a 1997 Rivendell Road, and I have less than 1mm clearance above 28mm
Ruffy Tuffy's at the fork crown and brake bridge.  I figured no fenders
with 700C.  I have some SKS fenders that I plan on using with 650B Lierres
(plenty of clearance), once they arrive and I install them.

How did you attach the fender to the chainstay bridge?  Mine only has a
small drain hole (no kickstand or fender mount); I figured I'd use a clamp
around the bridge and a long bolt to reach the fender.
