These mudguards are lightweight aluminium mudguards, made in the profile and width to fit 21" x 3.00 front wheel and 20" x 4.10 rear wheel - as originally fitted to Vincent Black Lightnings (and will also fit Vincent Grey Flash 500cc bikes).

These are the same profile as those I have fitted to my own Vincent Black Lightning replica - and the first photograph shows the same mudguard already fitted in the front wheel of my Vincent, with a back mudguard alongside. These mudguards are supplied un-polished . . . my view being that many of the polished aluminium mudguards I have seen look too much like chrome and not correct for a period Vincent.

For my own bike I burnished them using a 3M scouring pad to a semi polish finish - but now the bike has been sat in my workshop for a couple of years - they have that lovely greyish satin look of original alloy mudguards, that can still be polished if required.

These are also the same width and profile front and rear as the steel sports/racing mudguards we supply for pre-featherbed Manx and Inter Nortons, so they look very good on a competition bike.

When looking for Vincent BL mudguards I could find none that looked better in profile and arc than the mudguards that I was already making, so had a small batch made in alloy for Vincents - only a few sets, so once they are gone they are gone! note: The rear mudguard will also look reasonable with a 19" rear rim (as very few people will have provision for fitting the original diameter 20" wheel). And finally - expect packaging to be a bit more expensive than normal - these mudguards need lots of bubble wrap to ensure they do not get damaged in transit.
