You’ve a pm Paul
I popped round to Steve’s this afternoon to take a look at his mudguard and it looks really, really good. Some observations:
- Much more OEM than mine as it retains a lot of the styling cues of the original 19” mudguard.
- The clearance under the fork bridge means you can clean in there which prevents some of the opportunity for corrosion that these bridges often suffer.
- Slightly longer at the rear so much less spray attacking the front of the engine
My only reservation is that I really wanted a carbon one to match the Ilmberger carbon hugger at the back. However, if the CF version doesn’t happen, I’ll definitely be looking to get one of these since they’re impossible to find otherwise.
Nice one, Steve. It was lovely to meet you

Thanks Paul, will keep you updated mate. I’m sure you’ll agree the quality and craftsmanship is excellent.

What is the fastener situation on the fender stays behind the fork leg? Does one fastener secure the caliper at proper torque while holding the fiberglass in place?
The fasteners for mudguards and brake calipers are totally separate.

True enough but it appears that the "new" fender does not use the original attachment point

Still no carbon fibre option..?
No Paul I’m afraid. Was just about to put an update on. He’s a lot on at the moment and is getting on a bit. He said he’ll let me know when he can get to it.

Are these 17" mudguards still available to buy? I'd be interested in one.
Just away at the moment will ask him when I’m back.
