One Wheel Fender Availability
-
Why so much for the fender??? Foot pads are only $50 with a built in sensor, wood, grip tape, and assembly time, but a piece of round plastic stamped out by a machine in .5 seconds that probably weighs less than a Frisbee is $85. Why??? I am obviously missing something here.

@J-Glide Engineering, cost, development, umm, third party, something something help me here...can justify because it's only a small percentage of board cost, umm....maybe cause it's first run. I'm too tired to come up with other ideas to make me feel better. haha =) All I know is my right shoe may start to actually match the left shoe again.
-
@veryous I will be ordering one too, but I'm just trying to figure this out.
-
Anyone in Australia want to go for a group buy to save on shipping?
Shipping is 58% the cost of a new fender alone, little steep for a single order.
-
It makes me wonder now when these fenders will start shipping. If anyone gets a shipping confirmation, please let us know.
-
I´ve decided not to buy the fender, but to actually vaccum form it myself. The price is reasonable, but I figured that for the same cost, I can build my own, and learn something new along the way =D
-
@BadWolf if it works. Let me/us know. I'd buy a homemade one
-
@Brutha-Man Will do. I would have the mold complete
-
Anyone from Belgium interested in ordering together?
-
So. T'was a rainy day, and it was time to ride home.
Now I faced a tough choice. Wet and dirty pants and shoes, or quickly come up with a makeshift fender.
Well...
-
@germx ballin on a budget, love it
-
LOL, now that's innovation right there. I give you credit. You've gotta do what you've gotta do when the time calls for it.
-
You should charge $84.99 (+ $15 shipping) for that and steal the fender market! ;)
-
Worked surprisingly well, but I need to get something proper, that's for sure.
Paying 135$ (+ VAT and customs most likely) for a fender is a bit steep =/ But it does look really good.
-
I'm going to be selling a carbon fiber version for around the same price.. If anyone cares ;)

Lmaoo 4-6 weeks
-
I can't tell if you're joking or serious NJ, ha-ha. Did FM tell you 4-6 weeks?
-
Lol I'm kidding.. But assume it's a long wait
-
@njcustom Haha, that's what I thought. I'm expecting that wait for the most part just because they are still backed up on boards, so naturally thought it may be the case with fenders too.
Winter is coming so I'd like a fender sooner than later if I happen to be riding and get caught in the rain.
-
I can't wait to get the board already lol I'm at 5 week 3 days :/
