Over 100 Years of Quality
SKS is a quality manufacturer in the bicycle industry, we have been keeping bikes rolling for over 100 years.
Our history began in 1921 when Karl Scheffer-Klute of Sundern, Germany began manufacturing curtain rods. His company was purchased in 1932 by Wilhelm Blome, who also purchased a tire inflator company, which inspired him to begin manufacturing metal pumps.
SKS is now known as a pump and bicycle fender manufacturer, along with accessories for your bike, including bike pumps, fenders, bags, tools, digital pressure gauges, bottle cages, cage adapters, and even phone holders.
SKS items are still designed and manufactured in Sundern, Germany. We will continue to innovate and manufacture the highest quality cycling accessories for years to come.
The Future is Orange
SKS Germany employs 400 people at our bicycle HQ in Sundern, and over 700 employees across our three combined divisions.
43% of our bicycle business is through aftermarket product sales while 32% is OEM product.
Annually, SKS Germany produces:
- 4.5 million full fenders
- 2 million clip-on fenders
- 1.2 million bicycle pumps
This totals over 18,000 fenders per day and 3,200 pumps per day!
Revamping the classics
In 2022 the SKS full fender line was renewed. The classic Chromoplastic Longboard and Commuter II full fenders were replaced with the new Bluemels and Bluemels Style fenders.
Both models are made using the same chromoplastic fender material. But, the Bluemels now come with black hardware and are available in more sizes than before.
The Bluemels Style fenders feature a square profile design, double U Stay technology, a matte black finish, and come with a sleek, flexible spoiler on the front and rear fender.
SKS Germany continues to be a leader in clip-on fender options as well.

Legit. The only fender setup better would be a full wheel fender that is mounted to your brake mounts at twice the price. Keeps your legs dry on turning and also your rear bib dry from rear wheel spray. Couldn’t be lighter so no real noticeable weight gains. Great design and work well for their purpose. Also 1 minute to install and 15 seconds to remove.

I purchased the fender in Oct. 2023. The installation on my cyclocross bike took 5 or 10 minutes. I did use small rubber pads cut out of an old bike tube for better fit of the brackets that are attached to the fork, but they are not visible and cosmetically everything looks good. I have done about 2,000 km since then commuting on the bike during Canadian winter and the fender stays put and just works. Excellent product!

Update: I purchased a new gravel bike and wanted to put the fender on it. What I discovered is that the fender doesn't fit well on a very thick fork. Standard carbon forks should be fine. It's still a great fender. Just keep this in mind.***This was easy to install on my gravel bike. It's stayed in place and aligned while riding rough single track and one spill off a bridge into a creek 2 feet below. Cleaning the bike post ride is quite a bit easier now.

My commuter could be called a flatbar gravel bike, but it started out as a hardtail MTB. Over the years, it scored slicks and the fork was changed to a carbon rigid, but it still looks like MTB suspension (wide, cylindrical stanchions etc). This mudguard itself is really stable and doesn't flap about or touch the wheel like some other brands I've tried (I had Crud Roadracers that would need pulling away from the wheel every couple of rides), but it's not a "clean" fit on wide, cylindrical forks like I have - the mounting contacts with the fork are somewhat splayed (at an angle) due to how wide they're pulled. It doesn't affect stability or function though. I imagine it would be a really nice look on a road or drop-bar gravel that has 700c-type forks. The mounting was super simple, compared to the Crud Roadracers and the Zefal No Mud I put on my son's bike (which required you to check the installation guide) - the SKS rubber strap is super intuitive, won't damage the paint and it stays put.Would buy again!

ディスクブレーキロードだとリアブレーキが邪魔にならないので前後に装着出来ました。脱着もバンドではめるだけなのでワンタッチで手軽。前後装着で体へのハネはほとんど無いので非常に快適です。見た目もパッと見は付けてないようなスリムさで、50km/hオーバーでぶっ飛ばしてもブレたりすることなくしっかりしています。ぶっ飛ばしても速度はいつもと変わらず伸びるので空気抵抗の増加もそこまで無いと思います。梅雨時期にはマストアイテムですね(･∀･)

Due to the pandemic I've been biking much more than I had before. I picked up the SKS front fender because I didn't want to skip a ride just because the roads might be wet or because of a little rain.Installation takes about 90 seconds. The braces attach to the front fork with two rubber cinch straps. They are incredibly easy to install and remove, but stay put when riding. The fender has about 5-10 degrees of adjustability to account for differing fork angles. Once the fender is installed and adjusted, it stays put. I've put about 500 miles on mine and it hasn't budged at all.I haven't been caught in a rainstorm yet, but I've been on a few wet morning rides and have remained completely dry. As most bikers know, even damp pavement will leave you with wet feet and spray-covered legs. This fender completely prevented both of those issues, and it helps keep my bike much cleaner. I was skeptical because of how slim the fender is, but it has worked flawlessly. Plus, the fact that it is so light and aerodynamic means I leave it installed 24/7 now. Even though its easy to remove, I don't see the point. I'm about 50% commute and 50% pleasure/workout rides on the weekend and the extra protection provided is very much worth it.I'd recommend this to ANYONE committed to putting more miles on their bike. This will go a long way to helping me meet my goal of keeping my road bike active for 10 months out of the year in Wisconsin.

I bought this set because of the very high rating and can confirm: this fender is brilliant. It took me one minute to mount on my carbon road bike and it never moved, vibrated or became loose. Since it is so easy to attach and remove no more excuse for me to not ride when the roads are wet - especially after a rain when there are still some puddles or wet spots in the shadow areas under trees. It also looks good and unobtrusive and it really kept very effectively water and dirt from my frame and my face.

Put this on my Specialized Allez Sport road bike. Super easy install and extremely good fit because I've ridden over some severe bumps and the fender has not moved an inch. I thought the fender wouldn't fit between my wheel and frame since there's so little space on my bike, but the installed fender doesn't have clearance issues at all. I've ridden in some deep puddles and my bike/feet remained dry for once! Extremely happy with my purchaseIf you're worried about this getting stolen off your bike, the instructions say you can remove the rubber straps and replace them with zipties instead.

This fender is definitely worth the money. Light, sleek and easy to mount and remove. I've swapped it between both of my bikes and it takes very little time and effort, just like the rear fender I have from SKS. The straps even fit around the cable for my disc brake. There are a couple of drawbacks: 1. It is not totally effective in blocking spray from your feet whilst rididng like a bolt on metal fender is. But, way more convenient and does a pretty bang up job nonetheless.2. The rubber straps that are used to attach the fender to the fork could conceivably break over time with continued mounting and removal. Hasn't happened yet but I wouldn't be surprised if it happened.On the whole this is a great bit of gear and is just what I was looking for : an easily removed and effective fender for the occasional rain ride

This a great, inexpensive and lightweight fender that has kept my backside dry (and hence comfi) during many sloppy rides. It attaches quick and easy, and stays in place. It is mounted on the front forks of my gravel grinder with 700 x 38c tires, which takes a beating while bombing down dirt hills scattered with large potholes. The fender's plastic flexes to accommodate the wide forks and tire. The mounting straps a long and easily wrap around the large blade forks. A hydro brake cable is attached to one fork blade, but the fender mount has a recessed grove it and fits nicely over the cable. I extended the ends of the fender by attaching (with black duct tape) pieces of plastic cut from a food container - so now the fender hangs lower and extends a few inches in front of the head tube. Awesome and all for $20.
