Been waiting for this!! SimWorks by Honjo LINER44 & Smooth62

Just when it started feeling like spring, the temperature dropped suddenly and it's as cold as midwinter again.
I hope everyone is taking care of their health.
It's tricky to know what to wear when riding your bike, but both the 1st and 2nd floors of Circles are packed with new spring arrivals, so please come by and check them out!
I'll leave the apparel talk to Yanack and TAKA, but here is what I want to introduce today!
The new fenders from SimWorks by Honjo!

【SimWorks by Honjo】 LINER44 ¥7,200 (excl. tax)
*Standard mounting hardware included.

I've already installed them on my Cielo Cross Classic, so take a look.

Ever since the release of these fenders was announced, I decided I absolutely had to put them on my Cielo.
The two parallel lines that make up the Liner 44 are irresistibly beautiful.

The standard and turtle-shell patterns are beautiful too, but it feels like this was the only choice for this bike.
The tires I'm running are Challenge STRADA BIANCA 700x30c.
The Liner 44 is compatible with frames and tire sizes of 700c/28~35mm, so they fit perfectly.

Next up is this ⬇️

【SimWorks by Honjo】 Smooth62 ¥7,800 (excl. tax)
*Standard mounting hardware included.

It fits tires around 650x48b perfectly and suits a wide range of bike styles, from big tourers to daily commuters.
I was wondering if any of the Circles staff rode a bike with that wheel size, and lo and behold, there is one!!
It's Yanack!!
He's built up his SURLY LONG HAUL TRUCKER with 650 rims and is running 43b tires.
It's Yanack's commuter bike, and I think the Smooth62 would be a perfect match for a bike like that!

I think I'll go ahead and install the Smooth62 on his bike without him knowing.
Circles specializes in fender installation, so please feel free to ask us any questions, whether it's about whether they'll fit your bike or anything else!
We're looking forward to seeing you!
