## Description

desertcart.com : Portland Design Works Mud Shovel 6.5 Fender, Rear Fender : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Lightweight and Performs Great - I purchased the front, rear, and downtube fenders from PDW for my Salsa HeyDey. They are surprisingly light and simple to install. The ability to snap the rear and downtube fenders off is great, they would definitely break away safely instead of snapping if you went down. They are stable, I haven’t had to adjust them during a ride. I did a very sloppy ride 15 with them and only my boots got trashed. Definitely one of the best values out there for what you get.
Review: Simple and Effective - Very effective at keeping the crud off of me today. My shoes were really the only things that got dirty, and only when turning enough that the front tire could spray beyond what this guard would otherwise catch. This was combined with the rear seat post fender and they make a very effective combo for 'mud season' here in NW Montana. Still waiting for the fork fender ... it hasn't arrived yet, but I think the 3 of them combined will make an effective defense against the wet sloppy stuff. I'd suggest they design something for the seat tube - that'd be awesome! My seat tube/bb/crank area got pretty filthy today. Overall very satisfied - clever design, weighs almost nothing, yet is rigid and stable and shouldn't break if/when I ever crash. Easy on, easy off. Awesome!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi so I don’t have a fat tire anymore but I was woundering if this would work on a reagular sized tire?**
A: Hi Katie. Yeah, this will work on your less-than-fat tires. You'll have super coverage!

**Q: Will this work with any rear racks?**
A: It did not work with my Iberia rear rack

**Q: Is the angle of the fender adjustable?  I want to mount it low on the seat post and angle it up to clear the tire, but fit it under a small seat bag.**
A: Yes, the fender is hinged where the arm attaches to the bracket that attaches to the seat post to allow adjustment vertically.

**Q: how much do these weigh?**
A: The front is about 6.5 ounces and the rear is about 10 ounces.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ easy install, gives pretty good coverage.
*by M***D on November 24, 2018*

the fender was easy to install and position. the fender looked good on my bike and did not weigh much at all. Now for the downside. 1. the fender was hard to tighten to stay in position. 2. the strap to hold the fender on would stretch and then move around. 3. the snaps to hold the fender on are not durable. the fender came off on a ride in the woods. i do not know when or where the fender came off but now i have no rear fender. 2-8-2019 Update the company sent me a new fender. this time as you can see in the picture i made sure to fully bend the fender into shape. i took the bike out to hit the trails and the fender stayed on. the fender did not move around or have any issues. the fender did give pretty good protection from mud and water spray. I still wish the fender was a little bit wider to give more coverage. the fender did perform its job well. I would recommend that if you are going to travel with the bike on a bike rack i would take the fender off. I do not think the fender clips would hold up to the wind when driving. I was able to kick the fender while mounting the bike and the clip snapped off. all in all this is a good fender for a fat bike.
