...Could you chaps supply me with some measurements ? In respect of a mudguard
...Also would need an approximate distance to the ,whatever the rods will attach to on the frame. P clips maybe ,i dont know, whats down there or didnt they consider guards.- still to look into this. so the rods as long enough to lift it well clear of the tyre.
As this is cold laminating i need to make a former(youve seen one before ) to bend the layers around.
Limited to length of layers so im not sure if theres enough to wrap around much of the wheel or whether 1/2 around covering the majority of the mud slinging bits.
The diameter of the wheel including tyre....:
Sounds good.
As far as the length goes consider splitting the guard so it is in 2 pieces, ie 1 bit behind the seatstay/fork bridge, and one in front. It would make mounting much easier and if made QR even better.
I hinge mine. Makes mud clearing much easier.
BTW what veneers do you use? I was thinking of building a wee boat and I don't know the UK woods. (Thinking more of light and strong rather than for continuous immersion)
