These impressive traditional fenders are made from aluminum although they don't come pre-drilled. You have to be handy or have handy buddies to install these. But heck, this is the best way to get a great fitting fender! Stainless steel hardware is included.

Positives: Same good looks from 6' away as Honjos and just as light, meaning lighter than all the plastic fenders I've used (SKS, Planet Bike). Inexpensive and fully functional. True-to-size and nice X-section offers excellent overall coverage (I'm using with 26x1.75" non-knobby road tires).
Not so positives: Cheaper-looking components up-close, in terms of finishing and grade of hardware (this is not to say less functional) and still somewhat of a hassle to install. Shorter in length than some Honjos so needs mudflaps to be complete. Not much instructions provided so need to have some experience or do homework on installation.
Summed up: Good buy! Invest the time and money and get your rain bike outfitted with these to enjoy the functionality while looking good.
Yes, I would recomend this to a friend.

I bought these fenders as a Christmas gift for my "biker son" who sent me a link to your site in order to do so. He is anxious to get them on his bike but hasn't done so yet so I can't give an accurate review other than to say that they arrived on time and looked to be in good shape from a cursory view of them.
