Rear fender brace

Hi folks, since I am new to bike trials and a bit wild :P I fell off a few times.

Currently have fender N°3 in 2 months :P

Fell again last week and noticed that the rear fender got kinda soft... When I make jumps from 1m (or a lil higher) my licenseplate hits my rear tire.

This really started to anoy me. So I made a brace to make the rear fender a lil tougher again.

It's made out of 5mm Lexan (flexible but "virtualy unbrakeable"...let's see about that)

Let me know what you guys think of it. Or perhaps you guys have better solutions.

GreeTZ,

Same idea, but I used a hacksaw blade instead of Lexan. It is made of mild spring-like steel. My fender was completely broken into 2 halves, and this is how I fixed it. Has been holding up OK for quite a while now.
