Deepak : didn't expect you too to fall prey to these "fenders". I'd recommend you try these today in a slushy area - to insure yourself against surprises later ;-)

BTW, is the rear fender stiff ? or do you see some lateral movement when you are riding the bike ?
There and back again!

Shree, I am a serious Gadget freak who will not hesitate trying out new ones.

I will do that in a rainy day. Will test for it in Slushy area( and definitely upload the design on my T shirt as a reference :wink: .It is quite stiff in the back.

Prasant , Please find it out in the WEB & don't disclose it here. Quite a big hole in the Wallet. :D

Deepak,
Good choice of fenders, I've had a set for about two years now, used them on a scotland off road coast to coast ride and throughout the monsoon, and they are still going strong...should not have any lateral movement even on the really rough stuff (provided that you tighten them correctly)!
Enjoy the next monsoon!!!

TOPEAK rules ! The have some fantastic innovative bike stuff !

We just got some bontrager fenders at BumsOnTheSaddle. Want to check them out and see if they are as crappy as the firefox ones that we used to have till date ! How difficult can it be to make nice simple fenders ?????
