Overview
Is the PDW Mud Shovel 6.5 Front Fender Right for Your Fat Bike?
The PDW Mud Shovel 6.5 Front Fender is wide enough for fat bikes and mounts to your downtube with adjustable rubber straps for a secure fit. It is extra long and wide, 203mm wide and 622mm long (8 x 24.5 inches), to block snow, water and sand on your next adventure.
The fender is lightweight yet sturdy enough to take years of bad weather abuse. If your downtube is larger than 2.5" in diameter (PDW notes this includes most e-bikes), you will need PDW's 25" Voile Front Fender Straps to attach the fender. PDW also makes a Mud Shovel 6.5 Rear Fender.

FAQ
Good questions
Get to know Portland Design Works

There's more to Portland Design Works than this one product. Our Portland Design Works page has the full Portland Design Works lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Portland Design Works page →How does the downtube mounting work?
The fender mounts to the downtube with adjustable rubber straps for a secure fit. PDW says the bracket keeps the fender super stable and is easy to install.
What if my downtube is larger than 2.5 inches?
PDW says that if your downtube is larger than 2.5" in diameter (most e-bikes), you will need its 25" Voile Front Fender Straps. They replace the rubber straps so they can reach around large diameter downtubes. Each set includes two 25" Voile Straps.
Can I shorten the fender for a small frame?
Yes. PDW's installation manual shows that for small frames you cut the fender along the marked line to shorten it.
