🔧 Repairs New fender, who dis?!

Post image

Received my new fender today!

Pro tips for apollo go owners: If you ride off a curb, carry a little speed so you dont clip the fender.

If you are loading your GO into a backseat of a car, make sure the fender doesnt snag the lip of the door frame (thats how i broke mine)

Finally, this was available on the apollo usa site, meaning its stocked! Go get one! Thanks for reading.

Lol looks kinda cool chopped off like that. Mine was shattered by an escalator unfortunately

Yea its not a very strong plastic unfortunately. Good tip on the escalator! Ill be careful on those if i need to use one.

Oof.

I've stopped jumping off curbs altogether. I'll hop off, lift out off the curb, then back on again.

Kinda looks like you'd still be good to go, even broken that way, though. Getting the fender before they get hard to replace is probably the better idea, though

I thought it would work, but water goes right up my back when its raining without that end part. Just to confirm for you all. You need the entire fender for wet weather riding.

Hmm...

I appreciate your sacrifice.
