The SKS 34.5-37.5 mm mounting clamps are the practical and robust solution for installing your rod-type fenders on suspension forks or frames without mounting eyelets. Designed by SKS Germany, a century-old leader in bicycle accessories, these clamps enable simple, secure and adjustable mounting of your support rods, guaranteeing optimal protection against water and mud splashes on all your rides.

Product Summary

This set of 2 black clamps is compatible with fork or frame tubes with a diameter of 34.5 to 37.5 mm (sometimes referenced as 34.0-37.0 mm depending on sources). Manufactured from high-resistance reinforced plastic, they incorporate rubber caps at the bolt ends to protect paintwork and ensure optimal anti-slip retention. The mounting bolts are included in the kit, ready to use. These clamps integrate perfectly with SKS fenders (Bluemels, Bluemels Mountain Range, Velo, Edge AL) and many other rod-type systems with eyelets.

Technical Highlights

• Universal mounting: Ideal for suspension forks without eyelets or frames without dedicated anchor points — transforms any tube into a fender mounting point.
• Flexible adjustment: Wide diameter range (34.5-37.5 mm) to fit the most common standards for MTB forks, urban bikes and e-bikes.
• Integrated protection: Rubber caps on bolt ends to prevent scratching or damage to frame/fork paintwork.
• Quick mounting: Simple installation in just a few minutes without specialized tools — through bolt with locking nut and toothed washer.
• SKS Germany quality: Made in Germany by SKS, guarantee of durability and resistance in all weather conditions.
• Extended compatibility: Compatible with all rod-type fenders equipped with mounting eyelets — SKS and other brands.

Installation and Use

The clamp consists of two plastic half-shells that close around the fork tube or chainstay. The through bolt (threaded length ~35 mm) passes through both parts and is tightened with a locking nut. An anti-rotation toothed washer is provided to prevent loosening during vibrations. The rubber caps ensure both retention and frame protection. Installation is done in a few steps: position the clamp around the tube, tighten moderately, attach the fender rod in the designated eyelet, then tighten definitively. Angle adjustment is possible before final tightening for perfect fender alignment.

Compatibility and Standards

These clamps are designed for fork or chainstay tubes with a diameter of 34.5 to 37.5 mm, which covers the majority of suspension forks for MTBs, urban bikes and e-bikes. They work ideally with SKS fenders equipped with rods (Bluemels, Bluemels Style, Velo 65, Velo 42, etc.) but can also be used with other brands. The system compensates for the absence of mounting eyelets and transforms any point on the frame into a reliable fender anchor.
