If you know how to work on bikes, you can find some great ones secondhand. I got my girlfriend and old Bridgestone, and just had to give it a tune up, replace the dry rotted tires and brake pads, new cables and grips, and then put fenders and a rack on it.
- pbhjpbhj 7y agoWhat you call fenders for _cars_ we in the UK call bumpers; and they're like boat fenders, for allowing vehicles to bump without causing too much damage (they fend off the other vehicle). But your bike fenders appear to be what we call "mud guards" which don't act as "bumpers" at all but instead prevent mud/water from spraying up. Did I get that right, or do the "bike fenders" have some sort of anti bump facet to their design too?
- rhinoceraptor 7y agoYes, I mean mud guards. On a side note, I really wish there were ones that were easier to install, it took me at least two hours since trimming the mounting wire is so time consuming.
