    SKS chromoplastic Mudguards for sale: (Link to Adverts)

    Arrived today from wiggle but they aren't a good fit for my dispatch> Decided I will get a set of raceblades from Joe Daly's but these need a good home.

    €37 off wiggle, these are completely unused (unless you consider the time I spent putting them together and checking for fit, use) and going for €30.

    Good time to be getting a set for a thin tyred hybrid or more compliant road bike than mine.

    I would post photos but they are brand new so I think the wiggle link should do. If anyone REALLY wants photos let me know.

    PM if interested.

    These are very good mudguards; I have them on my tourer. Took me about a week to get them on but once they are on they stay perfectly in place and you never have to think about them again. "The Rolls Royce of mudguards" they have been called :D

    I'd love a set of these. But I don't know if I could fit them onto my bike.

    Would there be any way to squeeze 'em under normal road bike callipers?

    EDIT: I could swing by UCD. If early next week is not too much of a delay could I see 'em and check'em to see if I could get them on the BeOne?

    Actually on second thoughts that prob won't work out as I've used p-clips at the bottom to get the rack on and I doubt there in the correct position relative to the wheel to support mudguards. D'oh! :(

    If they haven't sold by then (..........tumbleweed..........rollin' though........) then sure you can have a try at fitting them.

    EDIT: No probs!

    P-clips should not be a problem, the stays are adjustable so you can move the mudguard in and out to compensate.

    If they were the P65's I might have been interested. But alas.
