    Who here has interest in using a real fender rolling tool?

    I need to further clearance my rear fender lips to make the rears 100% not rub. They only do on hard shifts squating into gear, or large heaves in the road.

    Anyways... Thinking about buying one as no one seems to have one.

    Who would be interested paying to rent the tool?

    Have you contacted your local CCA chapter? My chapter keeps one in the club "tool box" for all members to use for free and I know quite a few chapters have the same setup.

      Sounds like a good idea.

      If you shipped it to someone for a small fee + shipping back to you.

      Sounds doable.
      Best way would be to have rolling fender meets to make best use of it and so everyone can pitch in on the cost.

              I have one I will sell you... I used it a few times and now it just sits in my garage... I don't roll that many fenders so I think I can get away with selling it off... make me an offer, its an Eastwood roller, high quality.
