let's talk about this. before i built, i already knew about flat sheet-metal being susceptible to vibration & breakage, ie chainguards (both pedal & engine side) and flat-style fender-braces. broken fenders are a safety issue at the speeds we subject our bicycles to.
long story short, i finally decided on planet bike "freddy" fenders. coupla reasons...the flexible material merely "gives way" with contact, and recovers, & the round steel braces seem to hold up to vibration much better than a flat brace ever could.
planetbike has a great selection of these fenders, i guess you'd just find what you wanted, then find a seller that has it. sorry, can't remember where i got mine from, but total cost was $35 to my door. i have no problem highly recommending them, they're great.
