Full details

FAQs

Will the M1 front fender fit my specific fork model?

The M1 fender is designed for broad compatibility with forks, including tapered steerers. It fits steerer tubes between 19.6-26mm and 27.7-35mm. Always measure your steerer tube diameter before purchase to confirm.

Is the XC11 rear fender compatible with all bike frames?

The XC11 rear fender attaches to the seatpost, making it compatible with virtually any bike that has a standard seatpost.

How do I clean the mudguards?

You can clean the Topeak Defender M1/XC11 set with water and mild soap using a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.

Can I remove the fenders easily for dry weather?

Yes, both fenders feature a quick-release system, allowing for fast and tool-free removal when not needed.

What material are the fenders made from?

The fenders are constructed from high-impact plastic co-molded with a softer trailing edge for increased durability and flexibility.

Do these fenders fit 29er mountain bikes?

The M1 front fender is compatible with many 29er forks, provided the steerer tube diameter falls within the specified range. The XC11 rear fender is also suitable for 29er wheels, though fit may vary based on frame geometry and tire clearance.

Troubleshooting

Front fender rattles or feels loose

Ensure the correct size adapter is used for your steerer tube and that the quick-release lever is fully tightened. Re-adjust the fender's position if necessary.

Rear fender does not offer enough coverage

Adjust the pivot points to lower the fender closer to the wheel. Ensure the fender is mounted as far back as possible on the seatpost while maintaining tire clearance.

QR lever is difficult to close

Check for any obstructions or debris in the mounting mechanism. Ensure the adapter is correctly seated on the fork steerer tube.

Fender scrapes against the tire

Loosen the mounting mechanism slightly and reposition the fender. Ensure adequate clearance (at least 5mm) between the fender and the tire at all points.
