Overview

Why Choose the SKS B65 Bluemels for Full Fender Coverage?

The SKS B65 Bluemels is the go-to full-coverage fender for riders who need dependable wet-weather protection on wider tire clearances. Engineered with ultra-fine aluminum strips embedded in a plastic shell, the Bluemels design is lighter than steel fenders and more rigid than plastic-only alternatives, giving you a fender that holds its shape over years of hard use. The classic curved profile fits cleanly over 27.5 and 29-inch MTB tires as well as 700c tires up to 2.25 inches wide, making this one of the most versatile full fenders SKS makes.

The breakaway fender stay system is a critical safety feature, allowing the stays to release if debris becomes lodged between the stay and wheel and preventing dangerous wheel lockup mid-ride. At 65mm wide, these fenders provide full-coverage spray protection for commuters, touring cyclists, and adventure riders operating in wet climates year-round. Mounting hardware is included and installation is straightforward on bikes with standard fender eyelets. A German-engineered, field-proven design that has earned its reputation one rainy ride at a time.

What is the breakaway safety system on the B65 Bluemels?

The breakaway system allows the fender stays to detach if debris gets caught between the stay and the wheel. This releases the pressure instantly, preventing the wheel from locking up and reducing the risk of a crash.

What is the difference between the B55 and B65 Bluemels?

The B65 is 10mm wider and covers larger tires, including 27.5 and 29-inch MTB sizes up to 2.25 inches. The B55 is designed for 700c tires in the 38-47mm range. Both use the same aluminum-reinforced Bluemels construction.

Do the B65 Bluemels fenders require fender eyelets?

Yes. The B65 Bluemels are designed for bikes with standard fender eyelets. They are not clip-on fenders. Mounting hardware is included in the box.
