My 2018 Giant Defy has no rim brake mount between the seat stays. In order to attach the rear fender mounting tab I fabricated a bridge and fastened it to the frame using the built-in threaded inserts there. Another simple adaptation was to reshape the SS fender braces slightly to avoid interference with frame bits and fasteners at the dropouts. Otherwise installation was straightforward. Quality of materials is excellent and the final fit is very snug. The fenders work well. After several 30+ mile rides on sloppy wet, leaf and pine needle-strewn roads (it is Fall in the PNW) the bike has been surprisingly clean as were my shoes, socks, pants, etc. The only downside? Climbing up a grade over heavy drifts of wet pine needles, the needles collected between the front fender and the tire causing so much drag I thought I had a flat. Couldn't pedal against it, had to stop. Rotating the wheel backwards disgorged a fist-size wad of needles jamming me to a stop! Otherwise it's been smooth sailing. I'd buy them again.
Excellent pedal wrench. Built very well, the size provides plenty of leverage for hard to unfreeze pedals and the rubberized handle grip is very comfortable. Only complaint would be I think it is a good deal overpriced for simply being a pedal wrench. Don't see why this wrench would ever cost more than $25-$30 tops.
I have no idea why someone would give this product a poor review because it does not fit allen/hex key type pedals like Shimano, Time, Look, etc... It's obvious from looking at it that there is no hex key male type fitting anywhere on the wrench so why would you think it is meant for any pedal that is tightened with an allen/hex key??????? In addition, the product description says it is, "thin enough to access all wrench flats." A wrench flat is NOT an Allen/hex key opening. LOL :-)

Bought one first and then two more and changed over all my floor pumps. I got them on sale for $20 each which was a great deal. I had to reduce down the end of the tubing on my old Silca pump but I was finally able to get it on with the supplied compression fitting so I did not need a hose clip. My other pumps had smaller diameter hoses and the pump heads went on without issues.
The pump head just slides right over the valve body and locks on with the attached lever. When done pumping just release the lever and the pump head slides right off, It even has a button to release some air if you want to reduce the pressure.
It is metal and built really well so it should last a lifetime. No more damaging tubes or valves trying to get a pump head off.
