    REI Members get back an estimated $ 2.90 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

    Comments about SKS X-Blade Rear 26 Seatpost Fender:

    I use it in some pretty rough terrain on a full suspension, through thick mud, puddles and streams.

    It literally takes two seconds to install/remove, is effective against thick mud and splashes, stays put and is surprisingly sturdy given it's light weight and flexibility. I use it in combination with the Dirtboard and SKS Shockblade Front Fender and couldn't ask for more.

    My only complaint is that I had to buy locknuts to keep the four pivot point nuts/bolts from rattling loose. (Locktite was my first thought, but it is known to disintigrate some plastics.) Two other people I know have had the same problem.

    After installing lock nuts and going on a few rough rides (full suspension), I had to adjust the mounting bracket tension for stretching, but after that first adjustment and 25 rides later, it still stays put.
