VO even has a 58mm version of its 650B fenders now. Smooth only, though. From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Peter Morgano Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2013 4:17 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch Subject: Re: [RBW] Re: More fender advice needed
I have had both Honjos and VO's. The Velo Orange are a great deal comparatively speaking and like Alex said come pre-drilled. I know it has been said that some VO fenders only have one Daruma attachment on the rear but the 52mm Zeppelins def have two just like Honjos. Back in the day VO didn't have a hammered option so I got the Honjos but VO has expanded their collection significantly and I cant see spending the extra on Honjos unless you need a size VO doesn't offer.

Can't speak for Berthouds as I never had them. On Wed, May 8, 2013 at 2:45 PM, Minh <mgiangs...@gmail.com<mailto:mgiangs...@gmail.com>> wrote: Agreed. Have VO and Berthoud, VO are a great value. I love the Honjo's but have never gotten over the big price difference myself.

I've decided to get some 45mm fenders to fit over 700x32c tires. I'm leaning toward smooth aluminum type. I'm looking at either VO fenders or Honjo fenders. Honjo fenders are over twice the price of the VOs. I'd rather pay for quality to avoid disappointment but is there really that much of a difference between VO and Honjo fenders? Is there another fender make I might consider? Many thanks, Ojiisan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
