wonder if the US bikes will have front brakes ?

I wonder why the fender braces are on the outside on a few bikes? Makes it look cheap like a Huffy.

Wifes ticino has the outside braces, nice piece of felt and rubber on there too to keep the rattles down. plus it make the brace lengths adjustable with the type of hardware I've been seeing them use.

I didn't like them at first, but they started to grow on me after a while. They bend easily though.

They seem to protect the fenders better at the ends of the fenders on my Electra Indy. I personally think they are a nice touch, and look better than the norm with a little euro city bike flare

What Huffy had these.............???

This color on the Delivery is sweet........

A lot of the Walmart schwinns and those Kaluna bikes have been using round rod for the fender braces rather than the crimped flat steel braces.

Didnt' know my comment would get traction.

I forgot that all the fancy fenders use that method too. VeloOrange, Honjo's etc....

Cheap is all the rage these days. :lol:

Even the new Basmans are using wire braces. I think it's more of a European look thing.

Those cheap Europeans. :lol:

You definitely get what you pay for, I remember mounting the fender back on the front of the ticino when we first got it home. Mount them to the frame/fork first, then attach the braces lol

Here on the ocean where I'm at the pressed steel braces are really rusty after just a few months and the round braces on the Electra's still look great. For where I'm at the round are much better suited to our climate.
