That clears it up. The wide tire is 7.5"X12 and the standard tire is 6.5X15". The standard model has the three holes total and the wide tire has only two total.
Thank you

Nicky Pass,
I noticed that you have the two seat post on your fender, are you using them to hold down the bib or do they also hold down the Le Pera seat. I run a Motherwell Sols Rack and I'm looking for an aftermarket seat that uses the two mounting posts so I can keep the solo rack.

That is the way it came from the factory....the thumb screws hold the seat in place.....and since the bib is under the seat mounts, it holds it in place.

Well now I feel like a huge ***. Seat just came and it converts from the two thumbscrew mounts to one so I guess the bib will work. I assumed from your pics it would use the two thumb hole mounts.
Now I need to find some hardware to mount it to the one hole in the fender. Damn!
Other than that is looks sweet on the bike-LOL
