Steal on fenders for 26"

Thought I'd share this here since they won't do me any good running 700c, but 6 dollars seems like quite a deal!

Excellent, just what I need. Now to try to avoid the trap of spending another $45 to get free shipping...

Oh and I need to check if they'll actually fit my bike.

Awesome, thanks. Needed one, but bought two just in case it'd come in handy in the future. Under $20 for the two with shipping.

One would have been $13, which is still a steal.

Wait -- the deal is for a set of front and rear, right? Or would I have to specify that I want one of each?

Also, I wonder if any will be left by the time I get home!

Yeah I was going to as well, then I saw they had a second style also < $6 so I got one of those. Either way I'll have a spare set now.

I'm 99% sure it would be a full set. Wouldn't make sense otherwise. The only thing you can specify is the color (Silver or Black) and size (26" or 700c). Only Silver/26" is in stock.

Very cool. I have a guest bike that won't get ridden very much, that could use fenders if the price was right. Well, the price was right!
Thanks a bunch!

I've never installed full fenders before (just clip-ons) so I'm not sure what/if any fender mounts I have on my MTB. Hopefully one of the sets will work okay.

I got my fenders! Very fast shipping. Western Colorado isn't too far from Salt Lake City.
The fenders look great. I also got a pair of Ryders sunglasses for $6.

I was very surprised to see that my fenders had arrived today as well. The estimate was next Monday to Thursday and while they had already made it to San Francisco by this morning, I was fully expecting them to sit at the UPS facility during the entire four day Thanksgiving weekend. My venture into wet weather commuting has begun!

Hmm, I didn't get any confirmation emails. Did you guys? I was able to change my email address, so I know I didn't mistype it.

They're about 52mm wide and look to provide the same front-back coverage as the Planet Bike Hardcore 26" fenders.
