When I needed my full-coverage VO Zeppelin fenders the most during this 
seemingly never ending parade of polar vortices, the weight of any single 
garment I wore exceeded that 75g in magnitudes and I would no more consider 
riding to work without one of them either. I am sure my current mudflap 
exceeds that by a good amount, but it is what didn't break when slop-loaded 
below zero.

"Watch here for droplets". Once I saw that in the video, I realized this 
was a project carried out in the complete absence of reality as I know it. 
If the perceived problem is defined by solution, the target audience 
cyclist should just stay inside on the roller; riding outside and the full 
spectrum of tire-flung slop is going to be a real disappointment. Like 
showing up in a Speedo at a poolside cookout instead of trunks.
