If you are refering to this picture: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8379107@N03/2050579571/sizes/l/in/set-72157603 248926790/then the rear fender looks very like the Bluemel fender on my bike, although in rather better condition. I'm afriad the only photo's I have are from jus t after it was recovered from a cellar and do not show the rear fender attachment: http://www.mrtwig.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/SBSpecial/ however I can supply pictures of the fixings in the next day or so if that would help, my memory is that it clips arround the chain stay bridge but I will make sure.

Actually a little Googling reveals this: http://images.andale.com/f2/115/106/3561856/1099344701342_misc_fender_clip. jpg which matches my memory of how my fender is atached. Available from here: http://www.bikeville.com/accessories.html I will still try to get photos in situ if you like.

Bob Freeman linked to a picture of an Ephgrave with Brooks saddle, but I wa s interested in the fender attachment.

The rear fender does not appear to pass between the chain stays; how is it a ttached to the chain stay bridge? I am wrestling with that problem rig ht now. (chain stays too close together for fender to get between them and snug up to the bridge)

I have seen recommendations to trim the fender, but the Ephgrave attachment seems different.

Thanks for any assistance.
