I finally got real fenders, kind of pricey for my cheap ass but my first set of fenders didn't cover enough. I used P-clamps because this frame doesn't have fender mounts (*hint hint wink wink* State) but P-clamps worked well. The bike is almost in its final form, I'm still on the fence on lacing my own custom fixed gear wheel, I like the coaster brake but the bearings on mine has some reliability problems so a new wheel will be needed sometime in the future. The gear ratio is now 44/20 with 165mm cranks, it's perfect without the delivery bag but with the bag the ratio is almost too much for me. I broke the factory handlebars doing a 3' jump so I upgraded the handlebars, I did not go wider like I wanted, instead it's 4" taller but 2" narrower and has some sexy knurling on it. From the factory weight of 32lbs, I managed to bring this bike close to 50lbs lol including 20oz water and frame/delivery bags. This build was inspired by classic mid 20th century paperboy bikes
