I have 3 C&V bikes I use with fenders to commute and do general riding in bad weather: a '93 B'stone BB-1 that is my winter work horse with studded tires; a 1988 stumpjumper comp which is a fine winter bike as well with continental winter contact tires; and a '93 B'stone XO-2 that is my rain bike:

Wow, that Ebisu is very nice - beautiful frame details and neat components. Great photos too. Beats hanging an old sheet behind the bike!
Here is another photo of the Pitard with the racks and lighting installed. The frame is built with Vitus Extra Leger tubing, which I think would be too flexible for loaded touring, hence the diagonals. I have more photos and info in a Flickr album if anyone is interested. https://www.flickr.com/photos/577760...57662046378021

Another vote for the SKS Longboards - inexpensive, easy to install - especially on a bike to be used in pretty much all the weather we get here in California's central valley.

They stopped making these wonderful Apex fenders. If anyone sees a set, please let me know!

somewhere under the snow is my touring bike equipped with SKS fenders....
There wasn't any snow when I started the ride.. it all fell in the 90 minutes or so that I was on the bike!

It turned out great. If you decide to go French I'm sure it will only get better!

Early Aluminum bikes always looked to me as if someone overinflated the frame, especially next to a steel road bike with thin tubing.

so how well do the SHORT rear fenders work (the ones that attach at the rear brake caliper fixing bolt)
