Today as I went over a grade level LIRR crossing I head a noise and noticed the front fender came apart. It's 2 pieces and held to the front fork with velcro straps.. .which came apart. I was able to retrieve the front section that came off and was laying in the road before a car ran over it. I was able to put it back together and finish my ride.

What gets me is the rear is held on with rubber straps that have 2 rows of holes and attach to hooks on the other end... vert secure. While the front uses velcro straps.

The instructions say they are easy to install and easy to remove but I don't plan on removing them so I replaced the (4) velcro straps with double zip ties. This way if one breaks there's a second one for redundancy. I might was to stuff some of the velcro straps in my saddle bag for triple redundancy.
