dropped into a couple of glasgow bike shops on the way back from a cx race and was forced (through lack of choice) to pick up some sks commuter mudguards. roughly similar to the classic thermoplastics, but the stay attached at one point only, down towards the bottom end.
what a pile of shite. awkward to install and rattly as fuck. definitely not recommendo.
now removed and a chromoplastic for me again. never get out of the boat.

Ach, you should have said. I have a rivet gun bought specially for corroded mudguard rivets... alternative is to use a loop of string / cord / zip tie / roadkill under the stays and over the top of the mudguard. Other bikes in the stable have a zirtek blister pack folded in half curing a mudguard rattle and a curious arrangement of garden wire and a chain outer plate offering support where there is no chainstay bridge.
