SKS for durability and quality. Planet Bike for price.

I have both Planet Bike (Cascadia, and Hardcore Road) and SKS (Longboard) fenders on different bikes and can recommend all of the above. Same (excellent) quality and reasonable prices, the difference between the brands is minimal, so figure out what size you need and take your pick based on color and price preferences.

I have Soma Fab Eurotrip fenders.

They fit great and look great.

Eurotrip Fenders Road | SOMA Fabrications

They are red, which makes me faster. My bike is blue with red bar tape, so it looks nice.

Have you searched the forum? This question is asked here at least three times a year.

Having said that, I'll repeat that I really like the Bontrager NCS fender

I have the SKS Cromoplastic guards and they are really good quality and I got them at a good price from Chain Reaction Cycles.

I've used the planet bike hardcore fenders for four years with no issues. Upgraded to the sks longboards recently to get better coverage, and they're a really nicer product versus the planet bike fenders I had.
