Don't understand how the Whyte or Cannondale would have kept you dry. Maybe one of these...?

Mud guards knobby.
Sorry blobby!
Just stick some on your current bike?
Not that needing mudguards isn't a perfectly valid excuse for N+1 🙂
is this saga still going on? some people on here could have bought a bike, changed half the components, and then replaced it with something else entirely in this time
I can't speak for the cannondale but the whyte will do you fine and may be a bit more commuting oriented (shallow drop bars, lots of clearance etc). Just get it bought!

Not available till 20th....possibly 27th-ish.
Just get the Suffolk....or the Arkose 3/4.
....or maybe a Croix De Fer?
Jamie I've Just ordered it. Going on Saturday to try it.
Took me a while but I got there in the end. With all your help! 🙂
Hang on...so which one you ordered?
Buy the Whyte if only because Suffolk is an awesome county.
Croix de Fer is heavy.
Still time to cancel the order.

Ap it will all be over on Saturday so get some beauty sleep.

It can, they are just not conventional mountings.
