On my bike with P55's I attached a section of milk jug to the existing
flap, which worked well but was a little noisy when it scraped on the
ground, and doesn't look that fantastic. On my bike with P65s I used a
section of flat stair tread cut out in a flap shape. I wish they came with

My 58cm 650B Homer has SKS P50 LongBoards. Even with the extra long (6
inch) mud flap, the front wheel flap is 4.5 inches above the ground. So if
someone makes a 8-10 inch long flap that would fit the P50 LongBoards,
please let me know. Otherwise, I guess I'll have to DYI an extension of my
I, too, have noticed that Longboard fenders wider than 45mm are not long
enough. I don't know why that is.

On an earlier iteration of my '03 Curt with Berthoud 50 mm stainless
steels, I amputated 4 or so from the bottom of the front so that it would

have left if full length and have it do fine.) To make up for the
shortfall, I
