The SKS Shockblade Dark front fender is designed for 26/27.5 in mountain and trekking bikes, adding quick-release fork-mounted coverage for muddy or wet rides.
The dual-compound dirtboard mounts at the steerer tube with a hidden chuck-cone adapter installed during setup. Once fitted, the front profile can be removed quickly when full-time coverage is not needed.
