Source for Cycle Fender

[soareyes]

I'm looking for a source for wider front cycle fenders than what are currently on my Birkin. The effective inside width of the stock Birkin fender is only about 8 inches which will fit a 195/15/50 size tire but not the more readily available 205's. I've already checked a Caterham fender and it won't work.

 

Any suggestions on where to look? Thanks!

Coveland is a Locost supplier that has some pretty nice cycle fenders. I have a set of 8" wide ones on my car but they also have some 9" ones.

There may be other places to get them as well.

Hi Stan,

 

You might want to contact www.kineticvehicles.com as Jack makes some fenders for the Locost comunity and they are what you might be looking for.

Jacks e-mail address is jack@kineticvehicles.com and you need to put the initials at the end of the subjet line KV or your e-mail will not get processed due to the amount of spam that his site recives.

Thanks Jeff and Martin,

I ordered a set of 9 inch fenders from Coveland, and I'll let everyone know how it turns out. They are available in various colors, so maybe I'll get lucky and the green that I ordered will be a close match to my car!

Coveland also makes custom aluminum fenders as well. For the variable size they have glass wheel lips that you add an aluminum center section in whatever width you need, I think they are RH based.
