    I just got a pair of fenders myself. So far it hasn't rained on my rides... so I guess they're effective

    Good review - Thanks Carlo - good that you mentioned toe overlap and that the legs still get wet.

      Thank you. Take note - I cut one of the parts a little bit to make it a better fit. It helped with the toe overlap. Also I've been told that if I put a flap on the end of the front fender, it will help with the legs getting wet.

    Philippines? I think there's too much clay in the soil for the water to drain, can take a lot of work to improve it but not a big deal if you don't mind the water.

    • @carlovillarica
      @carlovillarica  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ya the water really stays on the roads. I like it because it helps save a few of my jerseys

    Do you still use these fenders? Hows it holding up durability wise?

    • @carlovillarica

      Yup all the time! They are on my MS every day. I stopped using the front one though. I dont mind the spray from the front

    Tip: your front fender clearance is a little too big. At faster speeds, that will act like a drag chute/air brake. You'll want to get it as close as you can to your front tire without rubbing for best results. I've used SKS full-length fenders (Longboards and Bluemels) since 2014, long before there was a market for them in the Philippines. Happy riding!

    • @carlovillarica
      @carlovillarica  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for this! Yup after shooting this video, I shortened it and it's much better now.

    • @TypeVertigo
      @TypeVertigo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The reduced front fender gap should help with keeping your toes drier as well. If you want even more resistance to wet toes, adding a suitable mudflap at the rear end of your front fender will do wonders. It's a relatively easy mod that should pay dividends. Happy riding!

    You should shorten the bars in the front. The fender is supposed to only have 15mm distance from your wheel.
    I the video it looks much more. This is why youre getting sprayed too much at your feet and also why your feet clearance is too narrow in the front now.

    full-length fenders... you absolutely love them when it rains and hate them as much when you need to remove a wheel for transport or to fix a flat. and I agree some of them are a pain to attach (like the sks longboards)
    some of your friends would laugh when they see it on your bike but guess who smiles when the roads get wet 😁
