If offroad just means trails, you probably won't need to make any
changes, and metal fenders will do just fine. Prepare for lots and
lots of rattling noise.

I've been running Berthoud fenders in offroad trail-riding for a long

Thanks for all the input. It was trail riding I was talking about,

You received this
I have Planet Bike 60s on my Big Apple shod Monocog 29er, and there is no
problem except shake thanks to flimsy stays. No rattling, either, but then

you will be fine as long as you have, say, a cm between fender and tire.

Patrick,
Did you drill a hole in your Monocog fork's crown to mount the front
fender upper stay? My old green MC didn't have a hole there.
Thanks,
Eric just sorta thinking about another one Daume
