Product Information
- FENDER SELECTION-Choosing the correct bolt-on fender is based on your wheel size and your tire width. This information can be found on the sidewall of your bicycle tire. Please be careful to choose a fender that is compatible with the size of your wheel and tire. If you have questions, please contact SKS USA for help selecting the perfect fender.
- COMPATIBILITY:A. Frame mounting eyelets are required to mount bolt-on fenders to the bicycle. If your frame does not have mounting eyelets, frame/fork mounting clamps can be purchased separately to create a substitution. B. Fender names include the profile width in mm. Profile width must fit through seat stays & fork legs. C. Rear sliding bridge clip is flip style & can be bolted to under side or front side of seat stay bridge. Seat stay bridge MUST have a hole to mount the sliding bridge clip
- FENDER FEATURES-Fender profile lengths are 700C & 27.5-29” front fender=680mm/rear=1185mm. Fender coverage can be extended by purchasing SKS spoilers/mudflaps. Features ASR Safety Release System which allows the front stays to uncouple should debris get caught in the spokes. Rear fenders feature a cutout on the front facing portion to allow for easier mounting & more adjustability near the bottom bracket. Stays for black fenders are black powder coated stainless.
- INSTALLATION-Bolt-on full fenders require mechanical skill & will take about 2 hours to install. Installation will require tools: measuring tape, hacksaw, file, 7mm & 8mm wrench, & 4mm allen wrench.

If mounting the fenders on a bike with disc brakes, shims are included and will allow mounting the stays around the disc brake caliper. Contact SKS USA for installation assistance.
