Unterlegscheibe aus Leder

Leather washers go between your metal fenders and the fixed points of your bike (frame, fork and racks, but not fender stays). The washers prevent rattles and keep the fenders from loosening. Leather is the best material for this application – it resists oil, grease and UV.

The leather washers are extra-thick, since they are made from cowhides used for making handlebar bags. Rather than throwing away the trimmings along the edges of the hides, René Herse punches them into the best fender washers you’ll find anywhere on the planet.
