Portland Design Works Sodapop Frame Mount Bicycle Fenders Review

I ordered it used from Revain and I think it's fine. The packaging could have been a little better. I think the rear fender is slightly warped so it seems to protect one side of the tire better than the other. However, they are very flexible, so I bent them the way I wanted them, and I think that might help a bit in getting them pointed in the right direction. They're a little flexible, but I don't care. I just wish they wouldn't let a wet stripe form on my buttocks. I'll update as soon as I…

The front fender was fitted to my bike after I bought additional bolts (the kit was not long enough for my fork. The rear fender did not fit me The mounting points were far from my bike and the fender bounced enough to hit the rear wheel no matter how I set it up.My bike is a gravel bike so the frame geometry is a bit lower in the rear but nothing major.I think they could do better with the Work compatibility with different bikes. Seems to be decent quality and see if it fits your bike.

I have a Giant Escape 3. The front bolt is not long enough to go through the front fork. I was lucky that I already had a similar bolt and nut that fit. It would be very different if more information was given as to what size was acceptable, but unfortunately the description they give you is as little information as you can imagine. The instructions are terrible. Why can Ikea give me building instructions for the entire bedroom when everyone else is just bad at giving simple instructions in a…

I bought these for my Specialized Hardrock 29er. The front fender fits well, but the rear end (forward) is quite springy and often scrapes the wheel, even when riding on the pavement. The rear fender didn't fit at all and I ended up breaking the center clamp (for the fork under the seat) because my bike's frame was the wrong shape. I was able to use a piece of wire to secure the fender, but the end clamp (on the seat tube, next to the bottom bracket) is too low making the fender look short. It…

After using these umbrellas for about a month on a wet Florida summer, it's time for a little review. This is a great set of low profile fenders that keep sand and spray out almost completely and unless you buy full coverage fenders you will be hard pressed to find a better performing fender. I found that the slight loss in protection was more than made up for by the light weight and good looks of the wings, which I have absolutely no regrets about. They have kept me dry after many sudden…

Other reviewers had trouble installing these fenders, but I installed them on my bike in less than two minutes. You can see in the photos that I put them on a typical 1990's style chromoly frame. Two bolts were supplied, a longer one for the front (where it needs to go through the headtube diameter) and a shorter one for the rear (where it just needs to go through the seatstay bridge). But I didn't even need a screw in the back! The bracket includes plastic grips that fit *perfectly* to the…
