Work really well, look great
This is my third set (for a third bike). They generally take some fiddling since they have to fit a wide range of bike configurations - trim here, cut there, maybe create a simple bracket. But...once that is done, they work really well and look great! And if you do a lot of riding, I would highly recommend plastic fenders like these rather than steel. You can beat 'em up and they come back for more. And, importantly, I've had to contact SKS a couple of times with questions and their support was awesome.

Very good quality, poor instructions and difficult installation
I purchased these fenders for two carbon-frame gravel bikes I just finished assembling. They accommodate the width of my tires--just under 1.75 inches. They are advertised as 47mm wide. They actually measure 46.5 (1.83 in) in width. I don't believe it is the fault of the manufacturer, but installing these is not for the novice. For the rear fender, I ended up ordering a P-style fuel clamp to mount the fender at the area caliper style brakes would mount then cut off the molded clamp that is at the end of the fender and drilled holes in the fender for a zip-tie to mount it where it attaches to the frame. For the front fender, I just needed longer bolts to reach through the top of the front fork area. Bike fenders are not "one size fits all" so as long as you are willing to do your homework and fuss a little these are a good solid purchase--lightweight, sturdy yet flexible, and reasonably adaptable as long as you select the correct fender for your tire width.

Fenders do what I wanted them to do
fenders fit well on my trek 8.2 ds with 20.5inch frame and 700x38 tires.could use the u-stay kit for better stability.but I like being able to take them off when I do not need them.I don't ride in the rain but I will ride after the rain and find some wet spots and puddles.They keep my back pretty clean and helps keep the bike a little cleaner as well.They are a little flimsy but do o.k.The u-stay kit would fit the rear fender but not so much on the front.The mounts for the front fender on my bike are located about 5 inches from the end of the forks and on the backside of the forks.I would have to bend the rods in a 90 degree angle to mount.So I have not mounted them with the u-stay kit but I might in the future if I like the look of permanent placement.They do what I want them to do which is why I purchased these.I did not want permanent fenders.Plus these are in my price range.Overall good buy.

Great addition at a great value!
The fenders seem sturdy out of the box but I would not recommend installing them without the "SKS U-Stay Kit for Velo 42/47 Fenders". The fenders were just too flimsy with the single mount. Once installed with the additional SKS U-Stay Kit the fenders sit firmly in place with no rubbing or flexing (IMO the kit should be included with the fenders).I'm not sure how these will fit other bikes but these fastened directly to my DB without a hitch. BTW the fenders that were shipped are the Velo 42 Urban and not the 47s. I didn't bother shipping these back as they fit so well, honestly not sure what the difference is between the 42/47 other than maybe size.

nice light weight splash guard
great for puddles to stop splashing onto clothes; ordered two sets for two bikes and was only able to use one set . the other bike had a carrier on the back which prevented installation of the fender.

Did not work on my hybrid bike :(
These definitely ned a stay kit purchased with them in order to work. Tried installing them to my Giant Liv Rove 2 and they would not sit in a way that I felt was secure and safe. So I purchased the stay kit to go with them, and the stay kit would not work out with my bike model either. Ended up returning both of them as I felt they would not be secure enough to make me feel comfortable with them. Also the plastic came with scuffs on it, just looks like the plastic is not particularly hard, so I would expect that they would get beat up looking with normal wear and tear pretty quick. Also my bike did not have a screwpost to attach the rear fender to, so if your bike does not have a screw hole below your seat and above your rear tire then you will have to do some creative zip tie rigging I think in order to get it to work!

Took way too long to install
I've asked other customers about this product and from what I gathered these fenders would've been a great fit for my road bike but unfortunately I was met with MANY difficulties. Starting with the rear fender, this product didn't like my bike and the holes thats needed to screw the black metal thing was no where to be found. On the description of the product it says I was suppose to be given the optional black steel thing since my bike only had it on the bottom but there was none. So I had to smash the damn thing to a specific angle and bend in order to be able to slide the metal into the slits on the fender. Ready for part 2? Now it's time to install the front lo and behold! I'm dealing with the same damn issue! This time the screw to tighten the black supporting metal thing is too short. Isn't that silly? How am I going to keep the thing afloat? Oh..I know..I'll use something that wasn't included. I'll just use some string to tie the thing hoping that it won't rip apart. Well thanks for helping me waste 3 hours of my life. My advice to you guys is you should give MORE information on what kind of bike these fenders work with-not just the wheel size. Tell us which hole the screws will be installed in because most bikes don't have the same frames-their designs aren't the same.Since I'm writing a review and NOT asking for a replacement it just means that I don't want to deal with you guys.

Keeps you dry
The fenders where installed on my 2013 GT Tachyon hybrid bike. The installation was easy with few modification, rear bolt to the frame was angled wrong so the bolt/nut couldn't be fastened so used electrician's zip-lock cable ties from Home Depot to secure fender to the frame. The front fender furnished bolt was too short so got a longer bolt to fasten the frame to fender. It seems complicated but it was not, once you can figure out exactly what to do since the instruction is very poor.Fenders helps keep water away and keep you dry, the fenders keeps about 85-90% of water away from you and your bike in a light showers.

Sprawdź dwa razy ;)
Sprawdź najpierw swój rower, w najgorszym przypadku będziesz musiał zmodyfikować dostarczone mocowania lub kupić bardzo drogie mocowanie SKS, jak to: https://www.amazon.pl/dp/B007M0BIH0?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_2QGR73AZ1TRMNQJSY9BQ (sic!)Słabo przetłumaczony opis produktu i niedokładna instrukcja montażu.Dobra jakość za tę cenę, chociaż należy uważać na zatrzaski w błotnikach, łatwo je złamać a w zakupie są bardzo drogie.
