Hello, any good, discrete, fender options for use on a gravel bike that would also be good for light road riding. I don’t plan to ride in full out rainy conditions but could pass through a wet section of road, gravel, puddle etc and if I can keep some of the wet and dirt of me and the bike that would be nice.
Thanks,
SKS Speedrocker….
I have a win wing on my bike, works surprisingly well and looks like it’ll fit quite a range of frame shapes.
I’m going to assume you’ve already looked at these?
I haven’t tried the fender versions, just the one that folds under the saddle, to keep the worst off my back and backside.
Win wings say max out at 38mm tires. Any experience with 40-45mm tires?
I think my previous were 40s and were fine. Running 38 panaracers now with lots of space.
Can get a picture if needed.
Edit: @vanbc just looked at the order and I got the gravel version which runs up to 60mm so 45s would have plenty of room.
Thanks, Amazon in Canada only has the 38mm for now anyway
I have mine on 40s that measure 42mm on the rim and it works great. I highly recommend.
Win wing is super good actually, tbo.
Allow myself to quote myself …
When using the Win Wing put a bit of tape under the mount to protect finish. If you ride in really wet/rainy, sandy conditions (gravel), if it’s particularly bumpy the mount my move and scar the paint. Barely noticeable, but still not great. I use clear or electrical tape.
