    I have a set of sks chromoplastic mudguards and in fitting to a Genesis Vapour disc the seatstay bridge is the reverse of normal. Any way around apart from making a bracket?

    Is it how the seatstay is drilled? If so, my tourer wouldn't either so I had to run a cable tie through the seat stay, and improvise it onto the bracket that way, ended up using two. Tried looping the cable tie around the Mudguard but it would've snapped or rubbed off the tyre.

    Yeah that's it, I'll give that a go

    Do you mean it's drilled vertically rather than horizontally? That's how my Thorn is and the mudguard is just drilled and bolted up to it, no bracket involved.
