Front Fender Ideas/Opinions?
Going to install a 14' Enforcer 19" front wheel on my bike. Would like to put a lower profile front fender on it. I can find all kinds of pictures with 21" wheels but don't see anyone that has done it with a stock enforcer wheel on a 19". Anyone done it yet and/or have pictures? Also, is there a preferred supplier?

Same thing I'm doing on my Ultra --- 19" front wheel. I'm going with the plain StreetGlide clean front fender --- no logos, medallions, or reflectors. I did nice stretched bags & a fender cover last year, and thought I should do something with the front. There are narrower wrap-around front fenders out there, but I decided to go with the StreetGlide fender. (Putting it on this winter, before the weather breaks.) Do a Google search on wrap around front fenders.

for a little nicer look, go with the cvo fender. it sits about 3/4'' closer to the tire than the stock fender does. you can buy the cvo fender unpainted for about $300.
did this when i replaced the front fender on the wife's bike when the original got dinged. it's a very subtle, yet noticeable change.

The "Wrapper" is my favourite so far.

That looks good. I did consider that as well. I think I'm going to go with the Klock Werks one as it's a little slimmer:

I only use it in the summer when all the touring stuff is stripped of, didn't care for the full dresser look with the fender so I stick my stock SG fender back on in the winter.

Beauty. That is exactly what I was looking for! Looks awesome. Do you notice any difference with water/dirt spraying back from the stock fender or is about the same protection wise? Do you have to remove the wheel to install?

You definitely have to remove wheel to install the new fender. I have the same KW wrapper fender but for my 21" wheel.

Unfortunately wrap around for 18 and 19" front wheels do not look as good as those for 21"'s as there is (or used to be) much less demand. Fender manufacturers please take note. We sell a wrap around for 18" or 19" that is a wrap and does not look bad but it seems the 21" wrap fenders hug the tire better as they are only made for one size wheel which is a 21".

I hope that touring bikes now come with a 19" that someone will make a really slick looking fender for it.
