>>2030678I respectfully absolutely disagree. If you're "going for a ride" with kit on and don't care about getting a little dirty then you'll live without fenders.
But if you're 'muting around town fenders keep all the shit on the road off of you. Feel free to wear jeans and sneakers. Ride through shit like picrel with and without fenders and tell me which leaves you cleaner. You're delusional if you think full fenders actually function in the way you describe.
You ever heard about the saying "sometimes your opinion on something says more about you... "
