Hi all, do any of you use those short length guards? I was thinking of getting a set for my build project from an aesthetic view point, but are they any good? I'm referring to the kind that would attach at the brake only, and are approximately 8 inches long. Cheers, N

Ill keep the top of this thread updated with the current before and after pic. 10/12/12 vs 29/5/13 UPDATE: 19/12/12 I don't want to edit any of the original thread below, other than to say I started out with the intention of picking up a cheap road bike to build into a winter hack -...
