I just tested these on my Surly Long Haul trucker with 26×1.5″ tires. They fit perfectly and mount fairly easily. The mud flaps are great. Last weekend I rode 100 miles on the dirt and mud C&O canal trail. There were many 50-foot long 3″ deep puddles, and these kept me and the bike almost dry with only a little mud on my feet and the bottom bracket.
It was great to ride through a long muddy puddle and just watch the water stream out of the fender, instead of covering my wate……
These work well. They even fit my rather large hybrid tires.
My previous fenders had ‘clips’ that connected the fender to the metal frame/ bike attachment — this broke easily.
These fenders are very secure and look great.

I commute to work in NYC, 12 miles RT. These well designed fenders are just what I needed for my 1986 Peugeot with 26″ wheels. I had to do a little bit of fiddling to get them to fit perfectly, but that’s always the case with full coverage fenders. These things really do what they’re supposed to do. I’ve had a few rain rides and these babies virtually eliminate road spray on your feet and legs. I’ve also driven through plenty of nasty garbage water (the real reason for fenders on a commuter rig……
The product is very nice, as described, though it’s black–this is mentioned in the text, but the photo is of the chromoplastic set.
As with most bicycle parts, it took a little tinkering to get this fitted to my liking. It could use longer arms in the front for taller forks like mine.
I ride a Trek 7100 converted for commuting (drops, saddle, tires, wheels have all been changed out), and these are a great addition to my 75 mile-per-week commute.
Logos are fairl……
Just got the 45mm black cascadias for my Giant Cypress hybrid with 700c, 38mm tires last night and installed them easily – they were just wide enough. I had to do some minor re-engineering with my rotory tool because I used a bolt at the chain stay bridge instead of a zip tie as suggested by the instructions. I simply cut the notch out to the end of the fender so it could slip over a pre-installed bolt. My bike had an existing threaded hole at the bridge to accept the bolt. Beside this, installa……
