Hi Jason,
I know this is an old thread but are the Honjo fenders still available?
Do they come with mounting hardware and what kind of shape are they in?
What size tires were you able to mount them over?
Thanks.

Hello,
I have a VO City/Gentlemen semi-custom frame/fork - this one was built in
2008 by Ahren Roger, a predecessor of the VO polyvant city bike frame. It
has only partially been built up, and never ridden. It was designed to
handle 650B up to 42mm tires (Hetres do fine), with 52mm fenders
Hey Franklyn,
From SE Springwater corridor is a very lovely ride. You can get on that
pretty much anywhere on the east side riverfront, ride south and then east
– the whole thing is car-free minus a few crossings and mild mannered. If
you feel like a bit more, get off at the Powell Butte
All right let's do this

to trade though as I like the options with 650b. Shoot me some pictures and
I'll consider. Here's a link to mine.

Dear RCW, I don't like brake squeal. I don't like it so much that I never
focus on what the pitch is. I'm too busy not liking it. Of course I can't
carry a tune in a bucket, and mostly don't hear out of my left ear (need
surgery but resist out of general life long cowardice and allergy to
I always thought it happened when the brake pad gripped and came loose from
the rim at a high enough rate to cause a flutter, which happens when
they're not toed in...
The chicken makes two tones too, front and back...

I have found that, upon aligning new pads as best I can, if there still is some
squeal then an application of water (splash from garden hose), or riding in the
rain somehow makes the squeal immediately go away, and stay away even after
everything dries out. Maybe the water helps the pads break
To get the ball rolling I'll guess wheel diameter but have no technical
basis for that thought. Probably a lot of variables involved.

I perhaps should have mentioned that I don't mind the squeal and that both
bikes are stopping just fine. Mark Abele installed the Pauls just 4 months
ago, and IMO he's the bomb as far as brake set-ups go.
I am more struck, mostly as a musician, that the pitch is so different. I
might wonder
I do! And I'm in Chicago too.
