Hi All,
I just got a fender set (SKS Bluemels) and see an interference between the front derailleur mount and the rear fender. I can either:
1. Dremel the section of the rear fender that interferes to make it fit. I don't like this much as water, dirt, etc. will end up seeping through.
2. Get a different front derailleur that doesn't stick out so far back to replace the Sram X7 that came stock on this bike (Giant Toughroad with 2 x 10 drivetrain)
I like having two front gears for riding in the hills so would prefer to not eliminate the front derailleur. Wonder if anyone else had this problem with rear fenders and how did you go about it
