Topeak Defender rear mudguard. | | Bottom Line: | Review is for the Zefal Buggy front mudguard. Quite a good product, actually - had it for almost 5 years. Works well for daily riding / "commuting", jumping stairs and kerbs, urban ATB stuff. Keeps the mud and water off my face and clothes. Mounts easily (and is easily removed from) a threaded stub that is inserted into the bottom of the stem. Never had a problem with clearance from the tire / brakes / down-tube. I take both front and rear fenders off when I do serious off-roading - I'm going to get muddy anyway, so why have unnecessary appendages flapping around my bike and getting knocked askew by trees / bushes / rocks. It finally snapped in half yesterday when I fell off while attacking a 70-degree climb, and the handlebar spun around 180 degrees. It's flexible - flaps around noticeably - and I guess 5 years of cyclic fatigue loading finally fractured it. Overall, a good product. Remember to take it off when you mount it to a car rack - highway speeds will make it flap a *lot*! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Not recommended! | | Similar Products Used: | "no name" fenders - cheaper and better. | | Bike Setup: | Road Schwinn bike for commuting/recreational rides.

I bought Zefal Plstic Speed Clips fenders(http://www.zefal.com/anglais/gboutrinang.html) for my old road bike to commute with clean clothes in the rainy town of Seattle. Paid $30 in my local bike shop. First pair of fenders I had to return - they were with defects and couldn't be installed properly. I changed for the another pair of the same full-sise silver mudguards. I prefer to avoid buing cheap stuff, and these french-made fenders seemed to be reliable... I spent more than 2 (two) hours installing these "easy plastic clips"! I have 15 years experience in cycling and fixing bikes. My other bicycle is using full-size fenders without any brand name from Taiwan. I bough them for $9, installed in 20 minutes and using them for 3 years without any complains. Anyway, installing Zefal fenders was a real pain. Plastic clips were scratching the tires and all construction was very unreliable. I'm using Zefal for several months, and I'm not satisfied with this purchase. An occasional light impact is enough to crash all the system. I would encourage cyclists to make a research and consider other model than Zefal Plastic Speed Clips Fenders. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

I've have never seen such inept engineering. They used cheap plastic clips to attach the stays to the CAB fender. Two of the clips broke on the first test drive. Even if they had survived the attachment is incapable of withstanding even the mildest drop off a curb. Zefal should be ashamed of producing such junk and trying to sell it for 30 bucks.

They did however do a great job on the packaging which skillfully hides this design feature until you get it home. | | Bike Setup: | Mtn Commuter bike | | Bottom Line: | Don't walk, RUN away from these cheeseball fenders. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$25.00 | | Purchased At: | Galyan's | | Strengths: | See below | | Weaknesses: | See below | | Similar Products Used: | None | | Bike Setup: | '02 Trek 7500 | | Bottom Line: | This is a review for Zefal Clip-On City Fenders (45mm). I just had a hell of a time with these putting these on my computer and I must b1tch about them .
I wanted full fenders and this was the closest I could get to after several LBS trips. "Clip on" makes the installation sound like a breeze, however, the only thing that clips on is the stays to the plastic. Everything else is fairly arduous. The "instructions" leave a lot of guesswork as there's four bags of hardware and nothing is marked and there's only three diagrams for about 20 steps. Plus, a lack of alternatives within - one part requires latching to the chainstay bridge. My bike doesn't have one (I used a zip tie instead).
The worst part though is the stays bending. They have little more tensile strength than a wire hanger. After installation on both, the fender had bent away from the side I had placed on the eyelet first, so they didn't exactly align themselves up with the tire when I was complete. Try to line it back up, the stay pops out of the mount. Cool feature, huh? The washers hardly cover the required areas and I had to dig up some parts of my own to make this all work. I haven't even had them in the rain yet but I can tell that at very least, the front fender isn't low enough to prevent wet feet and a shower on the bottom bracket. Looks like I still need a mud flap. Groovy! I also don't believe I can steer the bike when my pedals are in the 3/9o'clock position. I also had to find new screws to make the rear fender fit with a rear rack. I may as well have wiped my ass with the $25 and given my money some purpose. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

I tried these off road years ago but they don't last. I kept bending them on trees. I use clip ons on my real MTB or put up with the mud.

Full fenders give best coverage
Steel (or some other metal) core won't become brittle in low low temperatures | | Weaknesses: |
Chainstay clip was too small
Aluminum allen bolts can be rounded off if you're not careful
They don't make these anymore (out of fashion?) | | Bike Setup: |
Aquila T6 aluminum frame, LX-Alivio, Tektro V-brakes, Kinesis aluminum fork | | Bottom Line: | THe fenders do their primary function very well -- no water or mud getting thrown from the tires. However, it's tricky to install it so that it doesn't touch the tires on bumps. V-brakes further add to the task. I guess the best way to install them is to let the bike shop fiddle with bolts, clips (they've put another chainstay bridge clip), and tire clearances. I guess full fenders have not been intended to work with V-brakes.
If you don't leave enough (like 4+ cm) gap where the tire enters the fender (on the back of it), the knobbies catch the fender and bend it, lock up the wheel, break the rivets holding mounting clips, and scare you to death (that's what happened to me, on a speedy turn with a bump -- the rear fender bent in half and locked up the rear wheel). Luckily, the bike shop that sold them fixed them for free.After you get them installed correctly, you shouldn't have too much trouble - just check from time to time tightness of all bolts. And don't do aggressive off-roading with them. | | Overall Rating: |

Good fenders. I've got them on my C'dale and they do a great job keeping me and the bike relatively clean. The front fender is for rigid forks and goes on and stays put. I've got the rear mounted to my wishbone style frame with some creative use of zip-ties and it works great. The way that the rear fender gives complete coverage all the way down to the front derailluer is excellent. I'm thinking of trying to mount one of these rears on my Klein Mantra. It just works! In my opinion it is vastly superior to the seatpost mount style which is always squirming all over the place. | | Overall Rating: |

During the rainy season, the trails may be too muddy, so the road may be the
place to ride. City fenders that wrap closely around the tire do a good
job of keeping crud off of you and your water bottle. However, they are not
suitable for off road use due to mud clearance needs. Zefal offers city
fenders for both road and mountain bikes for $20 to $30. To mount them, the
bike should have dropout eyelets and adequate clearance in the brakes and
fork and seatstays. Most types of suspension won't work with the fenders.

Zefal Snap On Fender, for ATB, bought in 1996.
Price: about $15 for front and rear. Weight: 4.5oz rear, 4.0oz
front, 0.5oz for the extra rear spoiler that snaps onto the rear
one.
The front one generally won't work with suspension forks, and the
rear one generally won't work with rear suspension. The rear one
does a reasonable job as keeping crud off your back. City fenders
provide better coverage (I have city fenders on one of my road
bikes), but are not suitable for off road use due to mud clearance
needs. Occasionally, the snap clamp on the seat tube comes loose.
