Review on Topeak Defender Tx - Ultimate Front & Rear Set for Unmatched Protection by Andy Edwards

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like her! for sports

I thought they would be perfect for one of my bikes. It fits the other one too, but I have a rear rack that uses the same mounting holes near the hub, so I need longer screws. I had an issue with the L-shaped rear fender mounting tab - it wasn't long enough to comfortably reach the mounting bolt hole near the seatpost. . . I had to take a longer screw and flip it to get started. I couldn't fully tighten it but it feels solid and hasn't slipped at all after a few weeks of use. The fenders themselves are very light and do exactly what I need to keep tire spray from streaking the back of my jersey on wet roads. . .
