...so...one of the things that happened when I installed the new fenders is that my front reflector no longer fit...it attached to the front head tube and it hung just a little bit too low with the fenders attached...no worries I thought......I'd just bend it...well...not as bendable as I'd thought...haha...
...but I still have a spool of this bendable strapping leftover from the attic project in West Virginia...it's quite bendable...you've seen me use it to make a tesselating Goldfish cookie cutter...
...so...I just folded it double and tucked under the ends...crimped them with pliers...
...and because the holes lined up...I can actually move it up and down using the different holes...which may come in handy when I put the new basket on...

~Have a lovely day!

    my husband saves all sorts of stuff and it ends up coming to use eventually. We decluttered for the move and that meant getting rid of some precious stuff that might come in handy so far we don't need it yet. Your bike is awesome.
