Finished product.. You can only go so close to the tire, clearly you need travel room. Some air suspension solutions out there will get the gap narrow when bike is stationary, but then riding you will need enough gap..

Got a few but can't seem to display them like others here can, and can only manage 1 attach at a time! What am I missing?
