SKS Fenders FTW
Huge fan of SKS fenders. Purchase this for my trek Domane road bike. Used with 700x32 tires for winter and 700x25 for summer. I like having QR fenders so I can use them only when needed. 30 second on / off attachment.

Radical
Legit. The only fender setup better would be a full wheel fender that is mounted to your brake mounts at twice the price. Keeps your legs dry on turning and also your rear bib dry from rear wheel spray. Couldn’t be lighter so no real noticeable weight gains. Great design and work well for their purpose. Also 1 minute to install and 15 seconds to remove.

Good for $20, needs more adjustability
The fender itself is perfectly fine but with the angle of my forks (dictating the angle of the fender) it sticks out quite a bit near the bottom. There is some adjustment to change the angle of the fender but not enough for my bike. If I want it to sit a uniform distance from the tire, I'll have to cut a piece of adjuster arms off, drill out holes for a new position and reassemble the thing. Not a terrible amount of work but I wish there were some additional adjustment built into it. I have 700x28 tires and while it's plenty wide, it seems built to accommodate larger wheels than a 700. You can see what I'm talking about in the attached picture. It sticks out nearly two inches in the rear/bottom.For $20 or so, it does the job well and should look great when I finally get it adjusted properly, though I may ditch it for a more rigid fender. Even when I get it adjusted in, my foot will likely hit it from time to time and the flex in the plastic then forces it into the tire. Overall though it's a good option when there's too little clearance at the rim brakes to accommodate a full fender.

Great protection for a road bike!
Due to the pandemic I've been biking much more than I had before. I picked up the SKS front fender because I didn't want to skip a ride just because the roads might be wet or because of a little rain.Installation takes about 90 seconds. The braces attach to the front fork with two rubber cinch straps. They are incredibly easy to install and remove, but stay put when riding. The fender has about 5-10 degrees of adjustability to account for differing fork angles. Once the fender is installed and adjusted, it stays put. I've put about 500 miles on mine and it hasn't budged at all.I haven't been caught in a rainstorm yet, but I've been on a few wet morning rides and have remained completely dry. As most bikers know, even damp pavement will leave you with wet feet and spray-covered legs. This fender completely prevented both of those issues, and it helps keep my bike much cleaner. I was skeptical because of how slim the fender is, but it has worked flawlessly. Plus, the fact that it is so light and aerodynamic means I leave it installed 24/7 now. Even though its easy to remove, I don't see the point. I'm about 50% commute and 50% pleasure/workout rides on the weekend and the extra protection provided is very much worth it.I'd recommend this to ANYONE committed to putting more miles on their bike. This will go a long way to helping me meet my goal of keeping my road bike active for 10 months out of the year in Wisconsin.

1974 Kabuki Skyway - (trimmed & redrilled)
i installed it on my 1974 kabuki skyway’s front fork.it was easy to install, but i did not like the stock placement. the bottom end flared out too far that my toe would tap the fender when turning.I unbolted the bottom support arm that attached to the frame. i trimmed it to the length desired, and drilled a new hole. The bottom was too close to the tire; i made a shim using an inch of old bar grip tape wrapped with electric tape. i placed it on the bottom end of the product that attaches to the frame. i used small zip toes (2 connected for bottom and top) to place a better hold onto the frame. earlier in the day the product had dropped down rubbing the tire when i rolled off the sidewalk.i hope this helps for anyone that may want to custom the product more close to the tire.the bottom fender is now about an 8th of an inch from the tire. :)

Fits my 3T Strada
Just fits on the front of my 3T Strada regardless of the tight tire to frame clearance

Please replace my product.
Side supports broke after the return window closed.Point of contact to bike is too small for the frame size.

Works great as a simple fender
It is a simple fender. Rare to get a splash past it, but it can happen.Tip: If your forks are a little wide, use a heat source (like a heat gun or maybe a hair dryer) to bend it.I put this on both mine and my wife's gravel bikes. On my Wife's bike the fork is a little wider and I had to use a heat gun to reform the mounting ears a little so it would fit well. Once reformed it is working great.
