Full length Road Bike Mud Guards

[HLaB]

Earlier in the year the SKS Chromoplastics on my Kinesis T2 snapped at the bridge and I'm finally getting round to replacing them. The ones I am looking at are:

SKS
MPart
Flinger
Kinesis

PDW mudguards? Have a set and are metal , spare parts are available. Tyre rubbed my thro front mudguard flap but am running 28 mm tyres instead of recommended max of 25mm so a tight clearance. Easy to adjust stays no cutting to size

I've only ever had SKS and never had a problem so they're the only ones I can vote for.

SKS Longboards

I have wiggle lifelines on my winter bike yet to be reused this autumn but do the job!

I had the M:Part Primoplastics on a previous bike - they were solid, totally silent and easy to fit.

Another vote for the lesser recognised M:Parts. I had then on the Croix de Fer. Currently running SKS Edge 46 on my Kinesis Tripster AT over 38mm GravelKing SKs. Oddly enough, they rattled on my wife's ATR, but I must have made a better job of fitting them to my bike

Same here. To be honest I normally only fit the rear one makes it easier if taking bike in car anywhere. its a 1x and I have have winter boots and I don't commute, so it doesnt serve a lot of purpose.


the mpart look good though.

I am tempted by the MPart ones mainly because they are available through the online shop that my local bike shop is a member of and the price is comparable to others.

SKS Longboards

The principle of the long boards is ideal, but from personal experience they vibrate and stress fracture and subsequently fail. Thats assuming you don't break the front one on the edge of a kerb first

The m part ones look like brittle plastic whilst the wiggle ones are Matt tough plastic....

Wiggle ones?

I have the Flinger F42 as the rear guard on my recumbent. Great mudguard , replacing seat stay bridge as that’s gone after 3 years, but actual mudguard is in great shape.

I've got a mix of mudguards. The SKS Chromoplastics are good, easy to install, good coverage and largely rattle free. I've also got Bontrager NCS mudguards which are equally good when compared to the SKS ones, fit very easily, are very adjustable and totally rattle free.

However all of them are outclassed by the Kinesis mudguards, Solid aluminium, very stiff as a result of the design, very very nice looking and durable and totally rattle free with much better coverage than the SKS and Bontrager ones by default as a result of the longer mudflaps.

The metalwork from old ESGE chromoplastcs is far better than the cheese that SKS currently supply. I have a bunch of stay adjustment brackets from my old ones.
