Want To Buy WTB: V-Rex fenders

List,

I have a 1999-2000 V-rex and am trying to find fenders for the 20"/26" wheel combo. If you have a set, know where some might be, or can recommend a way to retrofit a currently available set, please let me know.

Thanks!

 

I have a set of fenders on my 2010 V Rex. (See attached picture.) They are Planet Bike fenders. I got them from my local recumbent bike dealer.

You can order them from his website.

Because I had a rear rack, the rear fender was a bit of a Challenge to install. But that was my LBS issue since they put them on for me.

 

Thanks Rocket for the kind reply.

I don't have a rear rack (but do have a big seat bag) so your idea might work great for me.

I see that the fenders are pretty small (i.e. only cover maybe 1/3 of each wheel). I take it that is sufficient to keep the water spray off you, your rear bag and lower frame? Keeping the weight down is important...but I would sacrifice some weight for better water shielding.

You know how it is with this model bike. I am getting covered with water/dirt everytime I am caught out in the rain.

Thanks again for your help.

BTW...what kind of rear rack is that? It looks quite stylish and well made.

 

It works just fine. No spray in front. A little bit on the end of my bike bag in back but I could put a rubber shield extender on the rear fender to stop the problem. I just try not to ride in rain!!!

It is a Townie rack made for a Townie bicycle but works and looks great on a V Rex. It is not perfectly level (slight incline) but you would never notice it. It works great and does have some style to it. And it was easy to mount to my V Rex.
