Thanks everyone for the their suggestions, its really apprecieted. I think I will go with full fenders with mudflaps. Planet Bike's Freddy Fender Hardcore seem to fit the bill. I think I was on the right track just wanted to ask for some advice before I made a purchase.

Thanks again for all the replies!

Gear Talk / Fenders

« on: November 07, 2005, 11:17:39 am »

Hello all,

I have thought sometime on the fenders vs no fenders debate, and have decided to equip my bike with full fenders. I havent seen any full fenders at my local LBS. So my question to the veteran commuters/touring bicyclists out there is what is a good brand to go with and what online venue is a good place to look at them. I have seen some by planet bike, some on nashbar.com, and performance. I dont know if some come in different colors but my bike is light green.

I do remember sometime ago there were a few studies regarding non-stick coatings in cookware. Apparently some of these coating use teflon, and at certain tempertures in the right conditions, it was was said to taint the food. I dont think it was as severe typicaly as the OP experienced. But just to be safe, I dont use non-stick coatings. Just my .02 cents.
