bought a carerra gryphon bike from halfords recently. Its a flat bar road bike with mountings for racks and guards but it also has disk brakes so the front mudguard mount is useless (on one side at least).

Is there a decent mudguard that will fit only to the "hole in the fork crown"? [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=25804 ]Are these SKS Beavertails any good[/url] or do i have to go for the really expensive Race Blades? any points will be great ta

or you can just bend the mudguard stays around the disc caliper

Would a spacer work? Maybe one of the washers from a v brake pad
