About this deal

necessary, it can be easily attached to the lower rear end of the mudguard. Hook and loop fasteners and a frame Crud Products XL Front Fender 6.

Soft fenders, on the other hand, are usually lighter, more discreet and seem to buzz the tire less, but in most cases don't offer quite the same level of protection as they aren't able to offer the same level of coverage. How do you fit mudguards on a mountain bike?

At the front, protection is enhanced with a new dual-height front spoiler, which deflects water and mud onto the wheel and downwards, away from the rider’s face. The rear mudguard utilises an innovative telescopic extension for greater coverage near the seat tube, and everything is held firmly in place with an all-new rubber fastening system to suit a multitude of frame designs, including integrated recesses for brake or gear cables as required.Hannah tested the Medium size ‘guard. I tested the Large size. Which was just a bit too big in practice; I caught my leg on it when getting on/off the bike a few times and the long ‘guard also fouled the ground when wheelying the bike through a gate or in/out of the garage etc. I ended up taking a blade to the ‘guard and trimming it a couple of inches shorter. This was AFTER a winter ride Another type of protection is provided by the extender which can optionally be inserted and slid towards the seat

The ProGuard from RRP is a rigid polypropylene guard that comes in two sizes – standard and maximum. The standard is pretty big and offers plenty of protection, but the Max is 21mm longer at the front and 68mm longer at the rear so really ups the ante. It has a three-point fixing via the brace and fork lowers. There are 24 crown holes for zip-ties allowing it to accommodate a wide range of brace sizes and shapes and it’s compatible with 26in, 27.5in and 29in forks and (RRP claims) tyres up to three inches in diameter. The extended side mouldings also help protect the fork seals. To fit the Pro Guard, you do have to punch out some tiny holes, which is okay but there is a bit of trial and error getting it set to the correct angle. The Max size can also move a bit when riding hard and when sending it off a drop there was often a hard crunch as some part of the guard bottomed out on the fork/tyre. That said, if you want to ride 60mph through a peat bog and stay dry, this is the guard we’d recommend – dirt doesn’t get in your eyes, on your clothes, no matter how wet it is or how fast you’re going. Easily the best guard on test. The best guards are the longest and work at all speeds. If you’re riding slowly, mud comes off the trailing edge of the tyre and is thrown upwards, but as speed increases it’s thrown further forward and you eventually ride into this spray. Having a mudguard that covers the full arc of mud trajectory is the best option. While the Velcro works, I’m not totally convinced it’s any better than cable ties would be. If you have to cut the Velcro off short, it’s limiting its reusability/swapability between frames with different sized seat stays. Is Velcro any more or less wasteful that cable ties? I’m not sure. But still, efforts at reducing plastic are always welcome even if they’re not 100% perfect. Despite my aesthetic objections to the Mudhugger, in use it has been very reliable and low fuss. I did have to cut away a small portion of the front ‘extender’ flap to prevent it rubbing the chain (Mudhugger do say that some trimming is likely, so this expected) but, other than when the tyre has been especially clarted in mud, it has been fine for clearance.

The best solution in the case of all eventualities: the SKS mudguard made of fiberglass reinforced plastic in a Die halten auch sehr gut, selbst bei miesen Straßen und langsam über Kopfsteinpflaster (schnell noch nicht probiert)! for full suspension bikes and mountain bikes with a Vario seat post. It is mounted on the seat bars of the rear fork

and on the derailleur. In addition, a further extension provides even more protection against splashing water. If OK, ist ein Universalteil und letztendlich passt es ja dran, wenn auch leidlich ;) Und das mit einer ... funktionalen Optik ;)

Foldable or preformed?

Am Hinterrad passen sie an meinem BMC Team Machine nicht weil die Sitzstrebe zu tief ansetzt. Da dies mitterweile bei sehr vielen Rädern der Fall ist, sollte sich SKS da mal etwas einfallen lassen und eine weitere Variante auf den Markt bringen. be rotated and used in two different positions for height adjustment. Like this, the distance to the tyre can be While a lot of the guards on this list seem very minimal they actually do an impressive job of protecting the most important area: your face. Riding in the wet becomes far easier if you don't have half the trail spraying all over your face. Even if you are wearing the best mountain bike goggles, having a mudguard should keep your goggles fresh and vision clear to the bottom of the trail. How are mudguards mounted?

Made from tech polymer resin, the Deflector is uber stiff and provides decent coverage in front of and behind the fork arch.
