Hi Dave,
My bike shop is going to build up my bike. Being that my bike shop is an authorized Calfee dealer and my LBS guy talks with Craig on a regular basis be he and Craig are discussing my bike build and the options I want. I believe I'll defer to them for their opinion on mounting of the fenders. Frankly I'm not all that keen on having fenders, but I do know that fenders make riding in the rain a lot more tolerable. What I don't understand is the sense I get that there is a prejudice against fenders on a Calfee bike.
From the information I've gotten, the Honosho fenders are about the highest quality fenders you can get for a bike, bar none. A local custom steel bike builder here endorses them for anyone who wants fenders on their bike. He is such an elitist builder that I would think he would disdain fenders if they weren't really high-quality ones. I also believe the fenders would be off my bike most of the time since it only rains here in Sacramento in the winter season.
