ASS SAVERS Frr-4-blk Bicycle fenders

Product Information

With headquarters in Gothenburg, Sweden, Ass Savers has been a successful brand recognized by cyclists around the world for their simple and innovative mudguards. With strong showings in the road and mountain categories, they now bring their product design experience to gravel with several new products. The thing with the Fendor Bendor Big is that you do still have to squeeze it between the seatstays. Every bike I’ve used it on has had a seatstay bridge, and it’s been relatively tight to fit it in that tiny triangle. That also means that I couldn’t get it any closer to the rear tire. As we saw on both of the front fenders, the closer I could get the thing to the tire, the better they did with catching wheel spray. With the newly developed attachment construction,Fendor Bendor regularis nowcompletely self-supportedand therefore possible to mount on bikes without the sideway support of the seat stays or the support of a brake bridge.You could also mount it above your caliper brake to avoid interference with the brake. You’ll get the most out of this thing with a carbon, disc brake gravel bike with a lot of tire clearance, where you can set it really close to the rear tire.

The 12€ Mullet is 39cm long and weighs just 30g. It gets some a few, slightly more complicated folds to create a forward facing cupped design to catch as much spray as possible. It also has well designed and placed rubber pads that hold it securely in place while also letting it work with externally shift wire & full-length brake housing. Weighing 60g, the Fendor Bendor Big is certainly lightweight but remarkably stable with some well-designed creases and folds giving the thin polypropylene its shape and rigidity. Fitting is straightforward, the single Velcro strap means you can easily attach and remove it from your bike, but we did find compatibility issues with frames that had a mono stay and it may well not play nicely with rim brake calipers either.The Fendor Bendor Big gets the dirty job done. The all new attachment makes fitting without tools a breeze, to virtually every bike in just a few seconds. It's dirty job but Fendor Bendor Big gets the job done! Maximum protection for gravel or MTB. Features With the wide variety of styles and fitments available, there is almost certainly a mudguard that will fit on your gravel bike. Some mudguards require the frame and fork to have specific mounts, whereas others fasten to the bike without the need for mounting points, so whatever bike you have there is no need to endure a wet and dirty ride. How we test

Enter mudguards, or fenders, specifically designed for gravel bikes – a true game-changer for those who brave wet and wintery weather on their off-road adventures. Another pitfall to be aware of is clearance on the other side of the guards: i.e., how nicely they play with your bags and feet. On smaller frames especially, toe overlap with the front fender / mudguard and giant saddle bags fighting for position with the rear mudguard are real issues.When searching for the perfect front mudguard for your gravel bike, consider factors such as weight, installation process, compatibility with your bike, and the level of protection it offers. With numerous lightweight and easy-to-mount options available in the market, you’re sure to find the right mudguard that suits your needs, preferences, and budget. Experience improved comfort and reduced maintenance needs by investing in a reliable and effective front fender for your gravel bike adventures. Traditional Full Fender Design for Increased Durability For those on a budget, the Zefal Shield G50 fenders offer impressive performance at a lower price point. These sturdy mudguards can accommodate large volume tires up to 50mm wide and provide decent coverage for their size. However, installation can be time-consuming and might require an extra pair of hands to ensure a tight and secure fit.
