Recommend me a fender please
 
Yes, I know there are other threads about fenders, but I don't think anyone really talked about "clip on" (not really a clip on. The wording may be wrong, I would rather call it "easily mountable/removable" instead) fenders.




Does anyone know a great Fender that supports 700x26 to 700x32 or somewhere like that, that are "clip on"? I searched online, there was SKS Raceguard XL, but I was just thinking if you guys know something better...


OR


Please recommend me the best normal Fender under $50.





Thank you very much.

P.S. My Bike tire is usually 32. And it's 2012 Kona Jake

You are pretty much looking at either SKS or Planet Bike at that price range. Both very good fenders. SKS may get the nod because of the metal strip down the middle, which helps strength and stability.

if you have eyelet mounting points for the struts of a proper mudguard,
you will find once adjusted for 1st install, removal and re installation goes quicker.

There is a clip on full coverage mudguard for road bikes without eyelets,
Would take the wheel spray off the center of the tire..

I have PB SpeedEZ fenders on one bike, and I like 'em fine. They took some adjusting to keep clear of the wheels (I'm on 35s at the moment), and they still chatter now and then on bumps and cracked pavement -- could have something to do with the carbon fork -- but they work. Adjustments are also very easy, because they're strapped to the bike with rubber fasteners.

+1. I have both Planet Bike SpeedEZ and Hardcore Hybrid. Both are very easy to install, fit well and keep most of the bike clean, but the BB shell will get some spray. The Cascadia Hybrid/Touring do better job of keeping the BB shell clean.
