I installed SKS Longboards on my 2015 Trek 520 Disc. It took thought, patience, and a bit of creativity given the ideal spacers were not to be found at my LBS. The video of installing SKS Longboards from Rivendell Cycles was very helpful. I ended up using a long bolt with lock nuts to achieve the proper offset. I bent the stays by hand. This was the first time I ever installed fenders and it took a few days given the trips back and forth to the LBS as well as other daily "honey do" things. The fenders work really well and very much worth the effort.
