The fenders are SKS Bluemels 45s. They will fit up to a 38 mm tire. I'm running 32 mm tires on this bike. I like the front fender's quick release safety feature.

I usually take the front fenders off when shipping the bikes, but I leave the rear fender on. The fender might get all the weight of the bike on it during shipment, but they don't get damaged.
Cool, thanks!

I like the fender/rack look. It looks like the bluemel 45s aren't made for 26" though, dang.
