Customer Review: This is a great DeFender
I have no complaints about this product. I bought it because i use my bike nearly everyday. Inevetably it’s going to rain and I still need to use my bike. With this product I can ride in the reain and not think twice about getting wet from tire spray. It fits on the seat post easily and comes off just as easily, without needing to remove the post. In addition, it looks pretty cool. Great product, I definately recommend it.
Customer Review: Quality fender with one minor issue
I got this and the M1 (front) fender to keep the skunk stripe off my back in wet weather. I only use this for commuting — not for offroad rock/dirt protection — so keep that in mind.
Overall, this fender is great quality, and is very versatile. The quick-release clamp actually fits over the seat tube on my ‘05 Dakar FS. I mention this only because it is designed to fit on the seat post, but the mechanism can be “unscrewed” to fit a lager diameter. The main (black) plastic is rigid, but the tip (gray part) is soft/flexible. This is great for when you — or someone else — accidentally bumps into it. The design allows you to set not only the height, but the slope as well.
The vertical adjustments lock down with Allen head screws, which is where my *minor* issue comes into play. Even fully screwed-in, the fender can be moved up and down -and- side to side fairly easily. Perhaps this is engineered to keep the rigid nylon pieces from snapping?
Although somewhat irrelevant to this item, I *did* encounter an issue with the M1. It broke at the mount on the first day I had it. The customer service at Topeak is awesome though, and I got a replacement part in 2 days!
