Considering a pair for one of my bikes . Also looking at getting them powder coated to match,as and when it becomes possible .

Anyone here fitted them on their bike .
Main down side so far is the price . £65 a pair :shock: then the cost of powder coating .

Re:

Not sure what they are. Are they metal? If so, I wouldn't buy. A mate has expensive metal mudguards and they are always rattling

Re:

Yes they are . Alloy and they only have one pair of stays on each guard which compared to say SKS which have two , is not going help with regards them rattling. They seem more of fashion than function item imho .

I think it comes down to how much you ride the bike they are fitted on . I have a bit of an obsession about coloured mudguards .
I really think I need to get out more :facepalm:

A few years back I bought 3 pairs of Soma fabrications fenders from the USA .
They did two types then . Rain dog and the euro model . The first been far better .
