Thanks Mike. That mudguard-clearing spacer sounds a lot like what I did in my buggy. I hate having any weight mounted on the relatively flimsy mudguards and the spacer thing works well. What material did you use? I used some 19mm wide x 10mm tall x whatever length plastic/nylon stock. It is light and self-threads nicely.
