My set-up uses 5mm steel bar... It's not exactly light but it's not going to break. I would have thought B+Q would be able to supply it
(if you need it quick and don't mind the wallet abuse).....

I bought csr style cycle wings from carbon mods about a year ago, not sure what grade they are but they can match them to your wheel/tyre size so you
can get a nice tight fit around tyre

You can use adhesive like Sikaflex, form a piece of aluminium sheet to the profile of the inside of your wing, securely bolt it to the stays and then
apply glue to your wing along its length to stick to the ali

Sikaflex didn't work with my Carbonmods wings as I found out at (around) the legal limit on the A14. Survived with just a scratch. They are now
bolted on with some fairing bolts. Front wing bolts from a late 3 series BMW look neat, they may do the job nicely
