How are those Raceblade fenders?

Have to add fenders on a Steamroller, but thinking I might have have to use full length Chromoplastics.

Jaytron says:

Honestly, if I could fit full length I would. The raceblades are pretty nice, but they're my only option on this bike because of front fork clearance issues.

jocke says:

I see. Guess that I'll go with full length ones then. Thanks for the info.

does that fork help the toe overlap? really glad i found someone that has used it. it looks really nice.

Jaytron says:

Eh, not really. But toe overlap isn't really an issue except for really sharp low speed turns.

I'm liking the commuting setup. I've a similar fork/headset combo on my bike. It gives instant class.

I'm asking how are they, not why they're called that.

Jaytron says:

OH LOL. I thought you were asking how they were called that. Sorry man.

I love them. Great bars for the price. I have wing style (flat top) handlebars on all my bikes.

I think it may be. The stem came off a Bianchi Pista.

Thank you!

Yeah, the stem is just a stock Biancha Pista one, so if you can find those specs, you'll be set!

The current black one is indeed a -6, civiliand was asking about the silver one I believe.

Nope nope, this is how I got it. Apparently it was a limited edition run of the Gold Stripper. Not the same gold that's sold currently.
