Mudguard recommendations for Bob Jackson World Tour bike?

[Deleted member 30479]

Hi all,

I've got a bob jackson world tour frame - has mudguard mounts etc - wondering what the best mudguards are for the classic look? trying to keep the bike looking timeless. Thanks

Hi - I fitted Gilles Berthoud guards to my World Tour and they are a good match aesthetically as well as being a good fit and great quality. Not trying to plug my blog on my first post but I wrote an article a couple of years ago with some guidance on fitting http://danmitch.typepad.com/a_bike_buil ... uards.html

Hope this helps - Dan

SKS chromoplastics have been around for 30 years and do the job nicely.

not sure the colour of your bike. They made these through the 70's too

I was on the look out for some mint old mudguards but as usual either the stays was rusty or bent
and the locking nuts were very rusty too and the mudguards themselves were badly marked
so I gave up the idea and spent £20 on some lovely new gloss black SKS mudguards and
got to say they don't look out of place on my old racer.

But if you are after chrome ones then keep on searching
