The
Bontrager NCS Mudguard Set have an adjustable stay that effectively doubles at the join which results in good stability; the integrated rear Blendr light mount for use with Bontrager
Flare lights is a useful feature; note they have a
brighter model as well. Slightly off topic but I personally use the cheaper smaller led as a daylight running light in the summer fitted to the handlebars and in the winter I fit that to my helmet that also has a
Blendr magnetic mount system, I then attach the brighter version to the bike.
The
Spectre that
Nebulous has just bought looks to have evolved from that listed on their site, looking at his pictures up thread you can see the eyelets on the outside of the seat stays, for sure you do need to take time working out where to drill the hole for the bridge fitting but if done correctly it will be very neat on that bike. Although the
Spectre will not take a pannier rack (to quote 'Reilly' "
No pannier fittings. If these are necessary then we say Gradient.") for those who also want a similar styled bike that can fit a rear pannier rack there are models from other brands that may appeal; the
Enigma Etape,
Van Nicholas Yukon,
Mason Aspect,
Kinesis GTD and
Spa Elan to name just five
