Can you point me in the right direction of which one your using or which ones fit please?

Official mud guards arrive on the 14th so I'm looking for a rack for my commute.

I think everyone is feeling a bit used, after you took us on the emotional rollercoaster of getting your bike, and then never reported back when you actually bought it.

We're a sensitive bunch.

Aren't they just Blackburn mudguards with the Whyte logo?

You are aware of the irony here, right?

My LBS took about a month to get the Whyte guards when I got my Suffolk in August, they do seem to be in short supply!

For anyone looking to get some they are easy to fit and work fine but on tight turns in underpasses etc on commute I do have to be careful not to catch my toes on them. Don't know if other brands are slightly shorter but may be worth investigating options if already tight or you have big feet? (Mine are 43). New to road bikes so maybe that is an issue with full guards / overlap on road bikes? Learning to time pedalling to miss it.

Edit - no help with rack sorry op!

I thought this was a racist thing from the title.....then I realised it's just picking on tiny people (Jamie mostly).

FWIW bog standard SKS guards fit fine, work well, and look OK. Not quite as neat looking as the whyte ones but they're mudguards for god's sake.

Can't help about the rack but I will continue watching in case someone else can actually answer the question...
