Win Wing - Ass Savers

Win Wing - a fender for cyclist who doesn't like fenders

I value the clean aesthetics of my bike. I have ridden through countless winters fenderless but recently I have become more pragmatic and less concerned about looks.  I recently had the opportunity to test the Win Wing bicycle fender by Ass Savers and I was pleasantly surprised by its unobtrusive design and quick installation.

One of the standout features of the Win Wing is its ruggedness. Despite its minimalist appearance, the fender proved to be sturdy and durable during my rides in various weather conditions. I took my bike through wet, muddy trails, and the Win Wing held up exceptionally well, providing reliable protection without compromising its structure. This ruggedness is a crucial aspect for any cyclist who wants a reliable fender that can withstand the challenges of diverse terrains.

The clean looks of the Win Wing are another highlight. As someone who appreciates the aesthetics of their bike, I found the Win Wing to be a visually appealing addition. The fender seamlessly integrates with the bike's frame, maintaining a minimalist appearance without sacrificing functionality. It complements the overall design, making it an ideal choice for cyclists who want protection without compromising the clean and sleek look of their ride.

The Win Wing is designed to be installed and de-installed quickly. Speed of fitting the fender onto the bike is a key consideration for many cyclists, and the Win Wing excels in this aspect. The ultra-simple design allows for swift and hassle-free installation. In just a few seconds, I was able to securely attach the fender to my bike, providing immediate protection against water and mud. This convenience is a game-changer for riders who want a fender that can be effortlessly mounted or removed as weather conditions change. (If you are a rider who prefers having permanent fenders mounted, both front and back there are some other really sleek solutions out there.)

Durability is a crucial factor for any cycling accessory, and the Win Wing lives up to expectations. It held its shape and functionality over the course of my testing, proving that it can endure the rigors of regular use. The materials used in its construction are of high quality, ensuring that the fender remains reliable and effective for an extended period.

Easy maintenance is often overlooked, but the Win Wing excels in this aspect as well. Cleaning the fender after a muddy ride was a breeze, requiring just a simple wipe down to restore it to its original condition. This ease of cleaning adds to the overall user-friendly experience, making the Win Wing a practical choice for cyclists who value both performance and convenience.

In terms of bang for the buck, the Win Wing delivers excellent value. Its combination of ruggedness, clean looks, speed of fitting, durability, and easy maintenance makes it a compelling choice for cyclists seeking a high-quality fender without breaking the bank. Ass Savers has truly created a product that caters to the needs of riders who want a reliable and efficient solution for wet weather conditions without compromising on style. If you're in the market for a fender that ticks all the boxes, the Win Wing is undoubtedly worth considering.

For those seeking an even more compact option, I would also recommend checking out the Fendor Bendor, as it provides an alternative that might better suit the preferences of some road cyclists who wants to stick a rear fendor in their back pocket..
