Had a flat on my Cervelo on the rear, and of course the Orange Seal spewed all over the frame. Since I was running a 50 on there (super tight, I know, Cervelo needs to up their game on tire clearance), I didn't notice the dried on sealant until I had the wheel off the bike a few weeks later. I had just added more sealant at the time of the flat and that had fixed it at that time. Ordered this stuff, and lo and behold, it managed to get it all off, not instantly, but it wasn't that long to get it all off. Impressive stuff, and it smells pretty good!
I'll start off by saying I've never been able to figure out how the light mount is supposed to work, even after emailing Restrap and getting a vague response back. That doesn't detract from the rest of the bag. Big enough to stuff a rain coat, snacks, and a bar mount headlight inside for a long afternoon ride. No problems with it flopping about, and construction feels solid. Haven't tested it out in the wet, but if it's like my other Restrap bags, it should keep everything inside nice and dry.
My 2018 Giant Defy has no rim brake mount between the seat stays. In order to attach the rear fender mounting tab I fabricated a bridge and fastened it to the frame using the built-in threaded inserts there. Another simple adaptation was to reshape the SS fender braces slightly to avoid interference with frame bits and fasteners at the dropouts. Otherwise installation was straightforward. Quality of materials is excellent and the final fit is very snug. The fenders work well. After several 30+ mile rides on sloppy wet, leaf and pine needle-strewn roads (it is Fall in the PNW) the bike has been surprisingly clean as were my shoes, socks, pants, etc. The only downside? Climbing up a grade over heavy drifts of wet pine needles, the needles collected between the front fender and the tire causing so much drag I thought I had a flat. Couldn't pedal against it, had to stop. Rotating the wheel backwards disgorged a fist-size wad of needles jamming me to a stop! Otherwise it's been smooth sailing. I'd buy them again.
Excellent pedal wrench. Built very well, the size provides plenty of leverage for hard to unfreeze pedals and the rubberized handle grip is very comfortable. Only complaint would be I think it is a good deal overpriced for simply being a pedal wrench. Don't see why this wrench would ever cost more than $25-$30 tops.
I have no idea why someone would give this product a poor review because it does not fit allen/hex key type pedals like Shimano, Time, Look, etc... It's obvious from looking at it that there is no hex key male type fitting anywhere on the wrench so why would you think it is meant for any pedal that is tightened with an allen/hex key??????? In addition, the product description says it is, "thin enough to access all wrench flats." A wrench flat is NOT an Allen/hex key opening. LOL :-)
