Hi all

And since it seems to be non-stop rain at the moment I need some mud guards please can somebody recommend me some mudguards for this type of bike as they are hard to find for this type

THANK YOU

And these fit my bike?
Do I require anything else to fit them?

The Crud's are a good option and will fit most racing bikes. Failing that ask the local bike shop for some SKS racing ones, they will be slightly more robust though you wont have the option to remove so easily.

There a bit fiddly to fit just take your time, watch this video.

If there is at least 4mm of clearance between the tire & the frame at the closest points they should be OK, they are a close fit and some people have failed to make them fit.

They'll fit, here's a VIDEO on how to fit them

Thought I'd jump on the bandwagon here instead of creating another new thread...

Any opinions on which is better out of SKS and Crud brands for mudguards? For an older steel bike with 700C 25mm wheels? May change to 23mm at some point but I'm not too desperate.

Any other brands you'd recommend?

Thanks

well I know nothing about sks but since I got these crud they are very light weight and in my opnion best set of mudguards I have ever owned so in my (biased) opinion crud it is

For a more traditional bike the SKS P35's would look more appropriate and are good quality and long lasting.
