Received my SKS Raceblade Pro XL fenders today. I ride my bike all the time (about 10 years across the country) in San Antonio and we don't usually get the steady rain that Seattle winters do. I've bought more wings than I care to admit - they don't come cheap. I liked the Raceblade Pro because I know the SKS does good stuff. Also, I wanted a "temporary" fender as I hate taking on and off permanent fenders as I'm uncomfortable reaching into hard to reach places and manipulating the tool. The Raceblade was a solid piece of engineering. The plastic/rubber piece that attaches to the frame with a quality rubber band is pretty good. I installed them in about 20 minutes (although it's a lot quicker now when I have them on. You can move the stays up and down a bit to give clearance over the wheel, and the fender into those for your bike tilting the most suitable position... I did a test ride with the fenders NO noises Fantastic My last (fixed) fender was rattling and driving me crazy Tomorrow it was supposed to rain I plan to ride to see how they behave can be a problem in heavy rain with these slightly less covered fenders I will update this review in the future if needed as my experience with fenders is more reliable SKS also includes four tiny propellers that you can use from the side of the tire into the black plastic "stays" that connect the fender, this allows you to adjust them and then "freeze" them in the best possible position . with a screw. A bike designed primarily for riding/commuting. I ride Gatorskin (28 years) for reference. I've added some photos to better show the build. Maybe I could decrease the clearance between tire and fender. I'll take a ride and see how the current release works. I bought wings in size 28-32 and they fit perfectly. Photos from the top of the bike should show how flat the fenders are. UPDATE: Driven 15 miles on Dec 23 '17. The wings were great. Absolutely no noise or rattling. I completely forgot they were on my bike. So far they like it very much.
