Rear Hugger
And now for something completely different!
I commute everyday on my "S" and have not been satisfied with the current rear fender options. Short of molding my own, I have acquired one of these French made Huggers.... For additional information please follow the following url: http://www.hal.varese.it/~alexb/naked-hugger.html Although he has changed the design, I still feel this hugger offers the "Best Protection" by far. And if you are after the clean custom look....two Cap screw and you can remove it. Have a 5 or 5.5 inch rim? Don't worry this will work with them both! BTW Offers great protection for my Vanderlinde system too! Cheers Tomas

No distributors in NA. You need to fax this guy in France and all comunications need to be in French. I will look for his information and post later today.

Thanks Tomas. I really like the look of this hugger. Much nicer than the Ilmberger.

Jim,
Thanks to R-Monster (Previous Post) for the following information: Order it directly from TCV in France for 268 Euros including post to Toronto. The phone number is 04 50 44 73 74 and the fax is 04 50 32 21 34 He only speaks french so use a translation program. It came in less than a week! The hugger fits both 5 and 5.5 inch wheels. The new version fits flush and is held in place by a reinforced steel plate where the hugger mounts to the caliper ( no more hole for cooling so it looks clean now). Rear brake cooling has never been an issue with this design. Cheers Tomas
