Ride in deep snow ride in mud ride over a log try to roll your bike backwards up a curb or a step. and many others including... Stand you bike up in the ice for a photo This flap goes in as much 6" deep snow as possible. And works OK in 12" deep snow, unlike the engine. http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/1272/hpim3445ss0.jpg |
