SKS has been my fender of choice - I've had a good experience with the hardware and they've served me well, though I bought the PB ALX fenders for my All-City Space Horse Disc and I'm liking them. They have what feels like a slight inner rolled lip - at least there's a slight raised surface at the inner edge of the sides of the fender, but it's so slight and non-intrusive. I run these over 700cx38 Compass Barlow Pass tires and they fit with plenty of room.
I've used several versions of Velo Orange aluminum and stainless fenders over the years and never had a major problem but mounting them has always been an intensive DIY affair, that despite my affinity for crafting and working with my hands, I have not really enjoyed, and I've found them to need touch-ups regularly to prevent rattling. Unlike these previous experiences with other aluminum fenders, I've not had any issues at all with the PB ALX fenders in terms of them being noisy or needing adjustments. I'd not hesitate to purchase another set of ALX fenders in the future, I think they look good, the hardware is decent to work with and they appear to be holding up well. I'd just as soon buy SKS fenders again too if they looked like the right choice for the bike. -Jeff Silver Spring, MD On Tue, Sep 26, 2017 at 11:53 PM, Clayton.sf <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > looking for a 50mm fender that offers the most clearance.
