Need recommendations on fenders for Giant Cypress
Enough is enough. When riding my Giant Cypress after the rain, I'm returning all wet. My back, *ss and legs are all soaked and dirty.
I'm looking for fenders that will fit my bike and can be installed easily.
Tires: Kenda 700x38 Multi-Surface (that came originally with the bike).
What would you recommend?
Thanks in advance!

Probably need the Cascadia 29'ers for the tire width you are running. BTW don't work for them, but probably should considering how much of their stuff I own.

Quick peek into the installation manual and I see it doesn't come with the installation tools.
I'll need the 4 mm allen/hex wrench. I believe that the PARK TOOL AWS-10 Folding Hex Set will do it.

Will be the Cascadia Hybrid/Touring fenders too small for 700cx38mm tires??
(It says "Fits tires up to 27"x1 1/4" or 700cx35mm".)
Does anyone know based on his/her personal experience?
Thanks in advance!
