Clip On Road Mudguards

[Deleted member 35268]

I've just invested a whole tenner on one of these (have been waiting for a while to get one)

I spotted it at the Cycle Show and it looked really good. What I like is the fact that it unclips so I don't have to take a full set of guards off my regular bike, instead I have popped this on my 1983 Frontiera steelie which I keep at work and shove in the boot of my car.

Other brake mounted guards on the market tend to mount on the seatpost which I don't think is as effective.

Anyways, it will hopefully stop my rear getting soaked when I go for my lunch ride.

I used to have something similar on my Scott Road bike. It keeps the muddy water of your rear but doesn't do anything to keep it off the cranks and chain.

On wet dirty roads its better than nothing but not a patch on a full set of guards .

Not to mention feet.

had a set of crud racer II's that did a job but were awful for rubbing and falling to bits. have replaced them with some lifeline clip-ons from wiggle, using the sectional mudflaps from the crud racers to extend their usefulness…

This thing has kept my rear dry for the past Month.

I was very dubious to be honest, having been spoilt with full guards on my Giant Defy but this is a good compromise.
