 What a Great Design Feb 25, 2009
By S. Kovarik
I looked at all of the fenders on the market when outfitting my new Fuji Patrol bike, and these seemed to get pretty decent reviews and definitely had the look I was going for. My experience is as follows:
Ease of Installation: 5 of 5
Durability: 4 of 5 (so far, so good - they really seem like they will last, on or off road)
Looks: 6 of 5 (these make my bike look just plain mean)
Function: 5 of 5 (no rainwater in my face whatsoever, even in a full-on downpour)
Value: 5 of 5 (even if they break in a year or 2, what is another $15?)
Definitely the slickest fender I've seen. If you have a hybrid or mountain bike, this fender is the ticket! I'm not sure if the look would work as well for a cruiser or road bike, but on the more aggressive looking bikes, they look just plain awesome. My personal feeling is that getting there is first priority, but getting there in style is a close second. Style galore on the right bike!

 Topeak DeFender M1 (front) fender Mar 18, 2008
By A. Thomas
I got this and the M2 (rear) fender to keep mud and water off me on rainy days for my commute.
The installation is a piece of cake -- just plug the diagonally-split cylinder into your fork, and tighten the Allen head bolt to compress it. The front and back parts literally snap right on. The soft tips are nice for when you bump into stuff; helps keep 'em from snapping.
Although I think these are great-quality, I *did* encounter an issue with the M1. It broke at the mount on the first day I had it. The customer service at Topeak is awesome though, and I got a replacement part in 2 days! I've been using the new one for several weeks now, and no problems!

functional and stylish Jan 13, 2008
By Aaron T. Bagby
I am very pleased with the design, weight and functionality of this and the rear fender of the same branding. I've hit the trails and roads with these on and it keeps both the rain and mud off your clothes while allowing a wide range of adjustment angles to accommodate different frames, tire sizes, etc. That and they are easy to remove for cleaning and storage. I highly recommend these products and am sold on the Topeak brand in general - good stuff.

 Fatigue-prone Design May 13, 2009
By David A. Brock
"davethewave"
The fender was fine while it lasted...But it only lasted for about 10 rides and then fatigue-cracked at the plastic mounting bracket. The fender fell off and is now worthless - $20 down the drain. Fender should be beefier at the mounting point. Do not buy!!

Does what I bought it to do. Jan 13, 2011
By m.d.
I purchased this fender for the purpose of commuting. I have a Stumpjumper that doesn't have braze-ons to mount fenders, so this was just what I needed to fit my rig. I've had this fender for about two months, and have had a good handful of opportunities to ride with them in wet conditions, mostly melting/slushy snow on roads. I would say it performs as I expected it to.
Since this is not a full-coverage fender, there is still a bit of spray that will hit the frame, fork, and maybe your legs (below the knee) and shoes. But, my bike is clean from the fender up. I don't have spray in my face, soaking my headlight, etc.
The mounting is a sort of tension set-up, actuated by an allen bolt. It has two general sizes that adjust for different size steerer tubes. It's simple and stays put. I do believe, though, that this model is meant to be mounted on suspension forks; a friend bought the same fender for his rigid and didn't have clearance to fit the fender.
Both sections remove easily, leaving the mount in the fork. So, if you want to ride without the fender, that's possible without tools; it comes off and snaps on very easily.
I chose this over a similar SKS model that didn't seem to have good reviews and was twice as expensive and a bunch of cheaper models that looked...cheap. It has a good rigidity to it. Some of the fenders I handled at stores were just flimsy; this one is definitely not flimsy. So far, I've found this a fender well-worth the money. It does just what I wanted it to do. I also have the DeFender for the rear, which works equally as well.
