Full Metal Fenders - 27.5x2.5"
Serious wet climate riders from Portland to London to Tokyo trust the Full Metal Fenders because they're quiet, durable, and look great on any bike.
Details
Made of sturdy anodized aluminum and adorned with laser graphics, the 27.5x2.5" Full Metal Fenders are a beautiful complement to any bike with 27.5"/650b sized wheels and room for extra clearance. The 27.5x2.5" Full Metal Fenders can fit up to 650x56mm or 27.5x2.2" tires maximum. They come with special extra long hangers designed to better fit 650b/27.5" frames and forks. The double rear stays add stability and prevent rattling.
They provide full-wrap coverage, even shielding your shoes and riders on your rear wheel thanks to extra long and super flexible polypropylene mudflaps. Safety release tabs ensure your wheels keep turning even if debris gets lodged between the fender and tire. The Full Metal Fenders easily mount to bikes with eyelets using all stainless steel hardware which may be replaced as needed.

"PDW’s Full Metal Fenders (FMFs) are arguably the finest you can buy off-the-shelf. They are a significant investment, but they are the perfect example of ‘buy well, buy once’ product with every part replaceable and spares widely available.

"The Portland Design Works Full Metal Fenders are regarded by many as some of the best available, and I agree – they're one of the most worthwhile investments you can make for any bike."
"Fenders are undeniably practical. They prevent road spray, and keep your feet dry. They also make cool bikes look ugly, or so I thought. These slim, beautifully made anodized aluminum designs from PDW actually look good on my road bike."
"Well built, stiff once on the bike and completely silent when riding, these are the best bike fenders / mudguards that I've ever had the pleasure to fit or use."
"The Portland Design Works Full Metal Fenders cost twice as much as some full-length, aluminium mudguards in this list. But on wet rides, the protection they offer to you, your bike and riders behind you can be priceless."
"Tested relentlessly throughout wet and cold UK & PNW winters, our best overall stamp goes to the Portland Design Works full metal fenders. PDW guards offer great protection in a variety of widths."
"If you’re in the market for a set of ‘proper’ mudguards then buy once and buy right would be our advice – and the Portland Design Works Full Metal Fenders are about as good as mudguards get."
"PDW’s Full Metal Fenders are the premium benchmark for riders who value silence, stability and finish..."
"Heading (quite deliberately) straight for some of the more notoriously rough rural lanes on my regular training loops, I was confident these mudguards were every bit up to this part of the test. And they didn’t disappoint."

We design PDW products to be charming and memorable. In addition to its primary purpose, our gear serves to enhance the beauty of the bikes it’s installed on.

Lastly, but most importantly, we keep it fun! Having fun is why we ride bicycles - plain and simple. We design our gear for fun through playful designs like our whimsical bottle cages, silly product names like Bar-ista Cup Holder, Power Stance Kickstand, and Cork Chop Grips, and developing some goods that are just for decoration, like the Zit Bitz.
