aluminum vs carbon fiber fenders side guards
Hi! I’m trying to decide between aluminum and carbon fiber fenders side guards. I’m going with removable side guards, so the weight is less of a concern for me.
My side guards will be around 10.5**״** high, and I sit on a 4” cushion.
It looks like the carbon fiber ones are more flexible than the aluminum ones. On one hand, I feel like the aluminum might be more comfortable if I need to lean against the side guard. On the other hand, the carbon fiber seems a little more flexible, which might make it more comfortable around the sides of the body. I’ll mention that I have full sensation.
I’d love to hear about your experience, which one did you find more comfortable?
