As a user of the PB 'bent fenders, there's something to be said for being able to select where the stays attach (which is what their weird hardware permits). The downside is that the little mounting gadgets can't grab the fender stays very well. I've actually had to knurl the stays and use a bit of JB Weld to get the fender stays to actually stay in the mounting gadgets.
