Fenders for Trek Checkpoint ?
Hi, I have a Checkpoint SL6 and have used the Mucky Nuts clip-ons but they are above the saddle bag and I'd like to get some lightweight fenders for when needed.
I'd appreciate suggestions/recommendations.
Thanks,
John

I just put some SKS Speedrockers on my Topstone. Pretty full coverage, easy'ish on/off.

what was SKS thinking when they designed the speedrocker, the rear is laughably short. All I wanted is a raceblade XXL

I know, I wish actually both front and rear had more coverage. I'm looking at different options to add some flaps. For now, this meets my needs, and when it is really wet / nasty out I take my Surly Ogre with full-coverage Gilles Berthoud fenders (with flaps).

I'm using the Bontrager fenders on my '20 Domane, which is very similar to the Checkpoint. Adjustable and fit nice. They come in two sizes. Rear flap is key to keep spray down. Don't buy fenders that lack a rear flap.

I just added the Ass-Savers BroTector and ToeTector to my SKS Speedrockers. Should have done it sooner...
