Quick Mount/Release Front Fender
Not much use for fenders out here in sunny SoCal, but when it does rain or the streets are wet and puddled, I don't want to get soaked. All my bikes are outfitted with racks, so I got that one covered. Seeking a quick mount/release front fender that will do the job for 38-45mm tires. Thanks in advance!

Rinko is a Japanese thing Jan Heine got the subscribers of his VBQ magazine emulating.
(and buying parts, imported , from his Compass Cycles company in Seattle.)
...to use the train to get your non folding bike, out for a ride in the countryside ,
it has to go in a bag, both wheels off, and compact as possible ,
so Rinko-ing is about getting tour 700c bike to pretend it's a small package.
Full mudguards that come off easily is part of the overall scheme..

Quick Mount/Release Front Fender
Not much use for permanent fenders out here in sunny SoCal, but when it does rain or the streets are wet and puddled, I don't want to get soaked. All my bikes are outfitted with racks, so I got that one covered. Seeking a quick mount/release front fender that will do the job for 38-45mm tires. Thanks in advance!

last year there was some resistance to starting a dedicated fatbike subforum. turned out to be super popular. I'm wondering if a "fender" subforum would make sense somewhere, because so many redundant issues / questions pop up throughout the year. if might be helpful to have them all in one tidy place making them easier to find & peruse

I'm about to install CRUD RoadRacer MK3s on my FGSS with 23-622 tyres.
Should be very easy on/off with velcro.
