mounting a "fender extender" - His Dudeness - 19-01-12

i got one of these to stop crap getting thrown up onto the bike from the front wheel but it attaches using screws and i dont really want to drill holes in the front mudgard. so does anyone have an alternative way to mount them?

I glued mine on with silicone sealant. Was a bit doubtful about how secure that would be at first, but it's stayed put for 12 years all-weather riding so far. Smile

All too long ago for my memory to retain that sort of detail I'm afraid, but probably bought it in Halfords, maybe this stuff (or its predecessor):

Should think any exterior grade silicone would do as well.

Me too & it's been there for a couple of years now without any problems.

Just to be sure, I roughed up the mating surfaces first & then left if for 24 hours to set with clamps holding them together.
