Additional Info

A true cult classic. One of Rocky Mountains greatest hits. Popularized by true pioneers. Wade Simmons, Brett Tippie, Thomas Vanderham, and Tarek Rasouli all piloted these to greatness. They altered everyone's perception of what was possible on mountain bikes. Just think how different New World Disorder, Kranked, or even freeride in general would have been without the RM7.

Way back when I was in college in Lincoln, I used to see a guy riding one of these down through the Temple Gardens. Watching him send it down the many steep flights of steps and banking was a nice break from doing actual work. Plus I was dead jealous.

I made that fender. It is made and mounted in similar fashion to the THE fenders. However it uses a Honda crf 50 fender. The old THE fenders are styled more similar to a Honda xr 50. I’ve made a few so far and they’ve all done great.
