    Question anyone else bungee their fenders?

    recently I noticed my rear fenders starting to "droop" a little. I decided to fight gravity by hooking a bungee cord from fender to fender across the back of the seat when the bike is not in use. I think it is helping. when I remove the bungee cord, the fenders seem to be holding their original shape a little better.

    anyone else notice their fenders starting to sag?

    no..lol, mine are not near as bad as the one pictured. they are just starting to sag a little. I think the bungee cord trick is working to slow the sagging process.

    The reason why that green 400's fenders are sagging so much is because maier fenders sag like a champ.
