Beats those other flimsy fenders
This fender is hard-core.I originally tried out the SKS X-tra Dry Rear Bicycle Fender, but I am short and have a women specific frame. Thus, my seat post doesn't extend particularly far above my rear wheel. In order to fit the X-Tra Dry model on my bike, I would have had to angle the fender way up in the air. I've seen people around campus with that setup. It not only looks silly, but I doubt it deflects the spray well.I was thrilled when I found this Dashblade model. I can attach it to my seat post and it angles straight out. It is wide and catches all the spit from my rear mountain bike tire. Tip: If you're worried about it being stolen, it's easy to detach and there is a triangular opening on the fender that you can use to attach it to your U lock. Otherwise, I've seen people wrap hose clamps around the quick release clasp to deter stealing.Pros:contours to wheelsturdyeasy to attach and remove via quick release claspadjustable (both fender angle and length of fastening straps)rubberized material on strap keeps it securely fastenedwide design catches mud wellCons:none really, it's not a beauty, but it's for a mountain bikeFor any mountain bike users, I HIGHLY recommend this.Note: When you first receive the fender, you do need an allen wrench to adjust the angle of the blade and tighten it.

Works well, two problems, both solved.
It keeps the mud off. It's easy to put on and take off or switch to another bike.Problem #1: The screw that allows you to adjust the height comes loose, and then the fender buzzes on the rear tire.Solution #1: Remove the screw, clean the threads, mix some 5 minute epoxy. Put a drop of epoxy mix on the screw. Put the nut on. Take the nut off. Wipe most of the epoxy off the screw. Allow epoxy to set for an hour with the screw and nut separate. Now, the nut fits tight. It can be adjusted, but it won't vibrate loose. If you don't wipe the screw, it will be difficult to assemble after the epoxy sets.Problem #2: The screw does not have a 5 mm hex drive like almost every other screw on my bike. My Pedro's six-pack tool that I carry everywhere only has a 5 mm Allen wrench.Solution #2: Go to Ace Hardware. They sell a stainless metric screw with 5 mm hex drive that fits the nut that comes with this fender. Now you can adjust it in the woods.

Great Fender!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was looking for fenders and had my options down to this one or theSKS X-Tra Dry Rear Bicycle Fender (Black)and after comparing reviews went on a limb and bought this one...VERY impressed! When I first opened the box and looked at it I was very nervous, it looked cool but I did not think it would fit my 26in manga rxpro dual suspension mtb. The reason is this kind of mount looks like it will only fit cylinder tubes but it fit my double oval shaped pole fine! My review:Looks 10/10:it looks really sleek and AWESOME!Compatibility 8/10: It looks like it would fit any bike but previous reviews say it did not fit perfect. never had a problem with mine fitting!Set Up 10/10: It is really easy to tweak it to fit your bike- takes about 2 minutes tops to get it snug!(a bit of torque is required to get it snug...not enough to break anything. I am 13 and small for my age and had absolutely no problem getting it to fit)Durability 9/10:The plastic seems to be tough but the only way to really test that is to use it hard core on the trails. If you get it snug on your bike it will be sturdy enough that you can adjust it side to side with your hand but when riding it wont budge more than a mm or two!(Like I said I have not ridden on the trails with it yet but when I got it took it for a hard ride around town and on jumps and it did not move!)OVERALL:10/10(The rubber holds it in place really good)

Average product
This product is nice looking fender with a nice aerodynamic look to it which I love. The problem is that the nut keeps coming loose and the fender buzzes on my fat tire. It’s annoying and frustrating. I have tightened it very tight and the plastic comes loose on one side. 3 star for looks 2 for Functionality

Just what I needed.
I'd been researching fenders for some time, and I'm glad I picked this one. I was tired of having mud and other junk flipped up on my shirt every time I rode, but I didn't want to get the full-on commuter fenders. This fender is quite light, yet it blocks all the crap that my tires kick up and is substantial enough to not flop around while riding. I am impressed how firmly it mounts to the bike with just the seat post strap. I really hate bike parts that rattle when you hit bumps, but this thing is solid. There's a cross-rib on the underside that I had to notch to clear my brake cable, but after that it went on great. Once you adjust the strap length to fit your seat post, the buckle allows quick mounting/dismounting.My only issue with it is the bright orange strap that is used to mount it to the seat post. It's not that apparent from the photo, but with the rest of the parts being black, the blaze orange strap really sticks out. If you can live with that (as I can), it'll be money well spent!

Works Great
It finally rained so I was able to put this fender to the test and I can testify that it came through with flying colors. I had zero water on my backpack, butt, thighs, etc.. My only complaint is that the mounting system, while very easy to put on and take off, allows the fender to move side to side if it is bumped while mounting the bicycle. Really though, that is a minor complaint and, in reality, it is a positive if you live in an area where you need to remove the fender to prevent it from being stolen.

Multi-bike owners' friend
I have a carbon road bike I ride year round, a cross bike I sometimes ride on trails and sometimes commute on, and a single speed for riding for fun with the kids. At this time of the year, the west coast is very wet. I really did not want to buy 3 sets of fenders for each of my bikes. Enter the Dashblade. It is so easy to put on and take off. I can switch between the bikes quickly and easily. I have ridden with this thing in a few downpours now, and my butt stays dry.Nobody really likes riding behind me on a rainy day with this, because it doesn't come down the back wheel low enough to prevent the water spray. But I didn't really buy this for everyone else, so I guess that's ok. Just be aware of that when you choose a fender. This is a fender for your ass, not your buddy's face.

Excellent!!!
Excellent product we now have 5 one on each of our bikes. My 12 year old son fitted his on his own in moments, once fitted it can be adjusted to any angle by simply using an Allen key.A favourite point is once the strap is adjusted to fit and locked in place, the mudguard can be removed and refitted in seconds depending on the weather you’re riding in on the day.Four of our bikes are different makes and models and it fits all of them without issue( Tip, If you wind a little self amalgamating tape around the seat post or slide an old peace of inner tube on the post before fitting the mudguard, the mudguard won’t move if knocked whilst ridding, it also stops the paint on the seat post from getting worn off )Cheers Arch
