Shop For Planet Bike Cascadia Front and Rear Bicycle Fender Set with Mud Flaps

I bought the 45mm fenders for my hybrid, which has 700x35mm tires. I've ridden that setup for about 6 months. The coverage has been absolutely excellent. The mudflaps extend quite low and really keep the bike clean and my feet dry.

Fenders are almost always fussy to install. These were easier than most. I like that they came packaged with locknuts for every bolt; on past fenders I've had to go over every single bolt with Locktite. These fenders were very easy to adjust, and they stayed in adjustment with no excess rattling.

The 45mm fenders say that they are for "hybrid/touring" but they did not make the transition to my new touring bike well. New bike (Surly LHT, 52cm) has 26"x1.5" tires. The fenders are just barely not wide enough; although the bike stayed reasonably clean, my feet really got soaked. The fender circumference is also a poor fit and makes an unpleasing visual line around the 26" tires. I've ordered the Cascadia ATB fenders to try because I was so pleased with how the 45mm fenders worked on my hybrid.

Edited to add: The ATB fenders give much better rain coverage on my Surly. After going through some mud and light rain today my bike was clean and my feet dry. However, the fenders sit very far out from the wheel - almost an inch out. I could wish for a longer L bracket at the top of both the front and rear fenders, and a spacer at the chainstay bridge to decrease this excess amount of clearance and even further improve the rain protection.Get more detail about Planet Bike Cascadia Front and Rear Bicycle Fender Set with Mud Flaps.
