Germany Raceblade Pro XL Bicycle Fender Set

***UPDATE 6/16/18 Finally got to test these out. Went out in the rain with my frogg toggs Men's Waterproof Ultra-Lite2 Suit, Bright Yellow frogg toggs Men's Waterproof Ultra-Lite2 Suit, Bright Yellow, L and hit every puddle I could find on top of being just out in the rain. Worked like a charm. Went on a trip to a store and decided that because these were so easy to put on an off, so could a thief so I took them off and locked them up with my bike. (I have a Tigr lock, so no cable TIGR mini Lightweight Titanium Bicycle Lock & Mounting Clip ). When it was time to go, both of these went on in about 20 seconds. Really. Kept me dry. No splatter. My shoes were even protected. Buy them! ==================== These are the fenders that I've been searching for over the last five years. I don't know how my otherwise incredible searching skills missed these, but this is the real deal. I've been looking for fenders that would of course, keep me dryer in rain, namely keep the splatter stripe off of my back and off of my shoes and legs from the front tires. These do the job. The length of the fenders contribute to the effectiveness as well as the flaps on the ends. I've also been wanting fenders that can be easily put on and taken off. I don't want to ride with fenders on when the weather is good. Here in Arizona, the weather is mostly good for cycling all year round. These do the job. They are easily put on and taken off. Takes about 10 to 15 seconds for both of them. Initial installation and fitting was easy. It took about 15 or 20 minutes to get them adjusted. Construction is excellent. Fit is great. And I am really pleased with the price.

I was a little annoyed that I received a set that had obviously been sold before and tried out. The fenders weren't attached in the display box as they should have been, they seemed to have a little dust/dirt on them, the adjusting bolt heads had evidence of the installation allen wrench being used and slipping, and the screws that were supposed to be included were not. The rear one was scuffed on the surface as well. However, they were usable and not really damaged enough to return. They took a little longer to get installed and adjusted than I thought it would take. But, it wasn't difficult at all. The instructions weren't too helpful, but it wasn't rocket science anyway. My first ride with them installed yesterday went very well. There was absolutely no evidence that they were even there while riding. No rattles, rubbing on tires, or squeaks, and they remained solidly in place. While riding, since the front fender ends behind the fork, you can't even see them unless you're looking down at your pedals and see the front one. I might have detected a little wind resistance, but it might just have been that it was a cold day and I was feeling stressed from that instead. To try to make re-install easier, I've put small pieces of tape on my forks and seat stay to show the correct position for clamping back on next time. Although, they may stay on for the entire winter. Definitely recommended for those who don't have the threaded attachment points for fenders. And, I think the bike actually looks very nice with them installed. Nice full coverage, but pretty inconspicuous.

Easy to mount. Good quality for riding in the rain.

I just received my SKS Raceblade Pro XL fenders today. I am a full-time bicycle commuter (about 10 years around the country) in San Antonio and we generally don't get consistent rain like you might in the winter in Seattle. I have purchased more fenders than I want to admit -they ain't cheap. The Raceblade Pro's appealed to me as I know SKS makes good stuff. Also, wanted the "temporary" fender as I hate installing and removing the permanent fenders as it is a pain in the rump to stick my hands into difficult spots and manipulate a tool. The Raceblade was a solid piece of engineering. The plastic/rubber portion that attaches to the frame with a high quality rubber band is quite good. I installed them in about 20 minutes (although it will be much faster now that I have them dialed in. You can move the stays up and down a bit to create clearance over the wheel and angle the fender in whichever position is best for your bike. I did a test ride with the fenders. ZERO noise. Awesome. My last (permanent) fender rattled and drove me nuts. Tomorrow, it is supposed to rain. I plan on riding to see how they work. Perfect fenders have a greater coverage over the wheel typical to a permanent fender. That could be a concern in heavy rain with these slighly smaller coverage fenders. I will update this review as needed down the road as my experience with the fenders is more robust. SKS also includes four tiny screws that you can use to screw from the tireside up into the black plastic "struts" that connect the fender. This will allow you to make the adjustment and then "freeze" them in the best position with the screw. I ride a 58cc Cross Bike designed primarily for riding/commuting. I ride Gatorskin (28s) for reference. I have added some photos to better show the set-up. I could probably reduce the clearance between my tire and fender. Will ride to see how current clearance works out. I purchased the 28-32 size fenders and it was a perfect fit. The photos from the top of the bike are to show how low profile the fenders are. UPDATE: Went for a 15 mile ride on 23 Dec 17. The fenders were great. Absolutely zero noise or rattling around. I completely forgot they were on my bike. So far really like them.

parfait, conforme a se que j'attendais

クロスバイク用に購入。 もっと早く買えば良かった。 付属のゴムベルト＋タイラップで取り付けていますが、まったくガタつかないし、タイヤに接触することもない。 まるで元々自転車に泥除けが着いていたかのようです。 結構細かい調整が効き、かつ調整した形で固定できるので、たいていの自転車に取り付けできると思われます。 いいお値段しますが、非常にオススメです。

Parafanghi ben fatti e facili da montare prodotto consigliato

Had it fix on within minutes. Highly recommended as it kept my brevet white jersey clean
