I chatted to him about his bike and he said he had these on:</p> <p><a href="http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FSGBSLFS/gilles-berthoud-stainless-fender-set" rel="nofollow">http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FSGBSLFS/gilles-berthoud-stainless-fender-set</a></p> <p>which seemed cheap enough, considering the many SKS Chromoplastic guards I've had break over the years. </p> <p>So a pair arrived last week and I finally got round to fitting them to my Dawes Galaxy. Oh what a beauty!! They look fab, and though a faff to fit, tailoring them to my bike what with rusted old bolts etc.. (off my older SKS) they do look smart! Now I just need to clean up the bike and pop the new M+ tyres I have for winter!</p> <p>Its amazing what a new set of guards for the bike can do for your riding. </p>
