Show Off Your Fenders

Maybe someone has already started this thread someplace else. Anyway...all you phender-philes out there, how about you put out and show us what you got. Is it OK to make up words like phender-phile? Here's what I did for the old lady. A Nishiki mixte something-or-other.

It would be easier to show the bikes without fenders... all both of them. I have over 30 and most have fenders. I don't race anymore so fenders are a necessity in my book.

These are some old pictures. I like Bluemels fenders, but I've had bad luck riding with them through harsh weather(brittle, cracking, torn flaps)



This red bike was my first old bike build from scratch.

Just one more reason that Frejus is one of the coolest bikes around these parts, imho.

This is my only bike with shiny fenders. Practically speaking, I think I prefer the cheap Planetbike fenders, and use them most often.

Velo Orange hammered fenders on my ride yesterday; they work great in the snow, I was as dry as a bone.

Locomotief Populaire, which I bought in Hoensbroek, NL when I was stationed there back in the 80's.


Globe Live 3 bought in '10 before Specialized bought the company and discontinued this wonderful bike.
