Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Topeak Defender FX Bicycle Fender: Ultimate Protection for Your Bike! by Zachary Jackson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works great when on flat trails

I installed an RST Killah fork on my SurRon and it worked great over the weekend and did about 27 miles cross country at a moderate pace. I was in a rabbit fight this weekend and after 2 laps of practice and a lap and a half of racing the front part (the plastic structure the wing is attached to) came off and my wing flew into the woods and I was in the middle of the race so I left. Later, on the way home with the bike on the trunk, the rear lock must have been unlocked and the rear half is probably on the freeway. For a bike it's probably great, but on my electric bike it didn't last more than 4 hours of riding. I'll probably use what's left of the attachment and make a proper motorcycle fender to fit so all is not lost, but I'm quite experienced.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Exchange availability
