Here's my daily commuter ride. It's an old Fujiyama mountain bike. Fujiyama seems to have been a house brand of McCully Bicyle. In fact I sort of me Mr. Fujiyama at the shop one day. He was truing wheels. Back in the day I guess McCully spec'd these bikes themselves as a house brand and picked Mr. Fujiyama to have the honors. Good deal.
Last time it rained I was caught out on my Fujiyama without fenders. It was not a particularly pleasant experience. I don't mind getting wet, but I do mind road goo being flung all over my bike or my body.
The weather has been just fine since then…till just this afternoon. I'd already decided to check out fenders at McCully Bicycle on my way home and am I glad I did. I ended up putting on some Planet Bike Full ATB fenders. They are nice and black, very inexpensive, and seem to work pretty good.
I hope I stay dry this winter…these should help.
Aloha!
