Review on Topeak Defender Mountain Fender 26 Inch by Johnathan Sherman

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Rear Fender Good, Front Fender TERRIBLE

Product quality is generally good but the front fender installation instructions are NOT intuitive and downright confusing. And on top of that, the installation was a disaster. Once I tightened the Alan screw into the stud to secure the front fender in my frame, I couldn't hold it. It ripped off the bolt so badly it bent and I had to break it to get it out. Shit, horrible gear. I'm either going to Home Depot to try and get a screw with the right bolt, or I'll see if Topeak will send me new hardware. If none of these solutions work, I'll send it back for a refund.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something
