The Cascadia's are what I used with my Karate Monkey. Generally, work fine, although I had to improvise a ty-wrap connection to the chainstay on the rear fender, as my Monkee does not have a drilled chainstay bridge. Likewise, I used a 3" piece of black acetal rod stock to move the front fender down closer to the tire. An inch or so of the rod stock fits into the bottom end of the steerer tube, and the fender is attached to the projecting portion, instead of directly to the fork.
