Well, the front section of the front fender cracked this weekend. I bought a Cross bike front fender and was wondering if anybody who has on installed could provide a picture and possibly the length of the rear support it would be greatly appreciated.

I bought a 6" metal brace from the hardware store for $1. It has 4 holes about 2" apart. Cut it in half and use one half on each side for the back bolt hole. I painted mine black. Make sure to buy the multi toothed lock washers so the fender won't swing.
The front bolts up normally.

Awesome! Thank you for the picture and help. The front fender I bought is off a hardball so it is going to look a little silly until I get it painted this winter. I will post some pictures when it is done.

I have already replaced my rear fender once. This time the front fender cracked on both sides at the bolts. That would not be covered by the recall. I picked up a Hardball front fender pretty cheap so I will get it fitted tonight and ride it until winter. A black and red fender on a pearl white bike should look pretty trashy but at least I will be riding.

I have some Plast-aid that I am going to try to repair the original fender.

I may have it powder coated instead. The company I work for a a powder coating booth. I know I can get the powder because CyClops did it on the lowers I bought.

Here is from further away. The Clearwater lights make it hard to see the front bracket.

Well, I got the front fender changed out. Black fender with a red stripe looks a little odd on a pearl white and silver Vision.
