Going to the LBS tomorrow to see about mudguards. I've never used them but got fed up with the bike shop I got my bike from so time for a change.
I have a Whyte Suffolk and Whyte full mudguards specifically for that bike. They are supposed to take 32cc, but I put on Marathon Plus 32cc and they were too big for the mudguards. At the moment I have no mudguards which is no good for commuting.
So, going to ask the LBS to do one of two things:
1. Fit new mudguards that are big enough for the 32cc Marathon Plus tyres.
2. Fit new tyres that are small enough (28cc) for the Whyte mudguards.
I quite like the comfort factor of the 32s, but I like the full Whyte mudguards also. I am not sure what to do at all.
I am also worried the LBS will suggest whichever option makes them most money. I don't know how I will know if they are being honest as I've never used them.
Any advice?
