Hello,
I live in Australia and have recently purchased my e-bike. I am looking and have been looking for some bike fenders and a bike rack which fit on a Cannondale Adventure Neo. It did not come with these accessories, but I live in the country and ride on gravel roads. Does anyone know where I could get them or if any other type fit this bike.

Welcome to the forum.

Hello and welcome! You should post your question in the Cannondale section. You’ll get more input there.

An ebike is really just a bike. You might be able to walk in to a bike shop and they may have rack and fenders for you. Other Cannondale users may have better info for you.

Hi Dotty,

The selection of the rear rack is fairly easy: It is Ortlieb Quick Rack, which is pretty universal and sturdy. It installs and uninstalls in a few minutes.

Regarding the fenders, it really depends if your Adventure Neo has bosses for fenders. If yes, SKS Bluemels is a good permanent choice for your wheels. A simpler yet effective solutions is SKS Beavertail Set fenders. Beavertail fenders require no bosses on the frame.

Here is a selection of SKS fenders compatible with your e-bike:

Thank you very much for your suggestions! Stefan...what are bosses??
When I bought the bike I asked the bike shop if they would put mud guards on for me and all they did was add a very small detachable back fender, which I didn't like.....and told me I didn't need a front fender or a bike rack! So hence I have been researching myself.

what are bosses??

I meant "bosses" in the engineering sense; for you, that would be 'the mounting points' on the frame with threads, so you could attach a standard fender or a rack using screws.

The beauty of the Ortlieb Quick Rack is it can be installed in a variety of ways on almost any bike without any mounting points on the frame.

Regarding the fenders, SKS Germany makes a variety of detachable ones that are mounted by rubber pieces and adjustable straps. I do not want to recommend a wrong model to you. You should look for a SKS fender set for 27.5" wheel and the tyre size 2.2".

Thank you again. Much appreciated.
