Blazing Red SKS Germany B45 Stingray Fender Set

SKS, a renowned manufacturer in the bicycle industry, has been keeping bikes rolling for over 100 years, showcasing its commitment to quality. The company's history dates back to 1921 when Karl Scheffer-Klute of Sundern, Germany began manufacturing curtain rods. In 1932, Wilhelm Blome purchased the company and expanded its focus to include tire inflators and metal pumps.

Today, SKS is widely recognized as a leading producer of bicycle accessories, including pumps, fenders, bags, tools, digital pressure gauges, bottle cages, cage adapters, and even phone holders. These products are designed and manufactured in Sundern, Germany, reflecting the brand's dedication to innovation and quality.

SKS Germany employs a workforce of 400 people at its bicycle headquarters in Sundern, with over 700 employees across the company's three divisions. The bicycle business is divided, with 43% of sales coming from aftermarket product sales and 32% from OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) products.

Annually, SKS Germany produces an impressive volume of cycling accessories, including 4.5 million full fenders, 2 million clip-on fenders, and 1.2 million bicycle pumps. This equates to over 18,000 fenders per day and 3,200 pumps per day, showcasing the company's substantial manufacturing capabilities.

In 2022, SKS revamped its classic full fender line, replacing the Chromoplastic Longboard and Commuter II models with the new Bluemels and Bluemels Style fenders. Both models are crafted using the same chromoplastic material, but the Bluemels now feature black hardware and are available in a wider range of sizes. The Bluemels Style fenders boast a square profile design, double U Stay technology, a matte black finish, and a sleek, flexible spoiler on the front and rear fender.

SKS Germany continues to lead the market in clip-on fender options, ensuring riders can stay dry and comfortable in any weather conditions. The company's comprehensive product portfolio caters to the needs of all types of cyclists, including commuters and e-bike users, with a range of fenders, floor pumps, mini pumps, air pressure gauges, bike bags, racks, phone holders, tools, bottles, cages, and adapters.

The impact-resistant mudguards, available in 27.5" and 28" (700c) wheel sizes, with a tyre width of 28-38mm, are designed to keep riders clean and dry. The front mudguard measures 680mm in length, while the rear mudguard is 1185mm long, providing comprehensive coverage.

SKS's commitment to quality and innovation has made it a trusted name in the bicycle industry for over a century. As the company continues to evolve and adapt to the changing needs of cyclists, its focus on producing the highest-quality cycling accessories ensures that riders can enjoy their journeys No Matter What.
