what do you plan on riding thru?



don't forget "wake" meaning water doesn't just flow in line with the frame. it sprays sideways. plus if you turn the wheel a smidge the main spray with hit your shoes as well



mud flappery ...










if it's just line rain, no major puddles, maybe just get good shoes & a cap for your water bottle? I do envy road bikes with low front fenders & flaps that go even lower
