Crud RacePac 29'er Set

I was hesitant to buy these after reading a few reviews, but I'm glad I bought them in the end.The rear guard simply attached to the seat post, whilst the front one attaches to the lower frame bar. The rear guard clamp comes with spacers to suit different diameters of seat post, whilst the front guard fits on with elasticated rubber straps. Despite some of the more unusual reports, in my opinion this hasn't and shouldn't interfere with the gear/brake cables unless you fit it incorrectly (or have an unusual frame).The guards are lightweight and flexible, which can mean the rear gets a bit "flappy" over bumps, but that's to be expected I think. I would say I cycle regularly over severely bumpy surfaces (enough to mean my handlebar-mounted action camera mount moves all over the place), and the guards are still fitted exactly as I when I first put them on. I paid around £15 for a set, which is a veritable bargain.

I recently bought a mountain bike to try my hand at off-road cycling. I know the purists prefer to return from the trails caked in mud, but a set of mudguards seemed to me to be a sensible investment to try and keep some of the muck away...This set includes two mudguards - one for the rear wheel which clamps to the seatpost, and one for the front wheel which attaches to the bottom tube with a couple of rubber O-rings. All the fittings are included in the kit, including rubber pads of varying thicknesses to fit different seatposts. Fitting the rear guard took about 2 minutes; fitting the front one was slightly more fiddly, as it is a bit awkward to stretch the O-rings and poke them through the hole in the guard, but I was ready to go in 5 minutes or so.The guards themselves are made of a very flexible plastic with rubber trim, which will simply bounce back into shape even if bent in half; I did crash my bike while testing these on Saturday, and they were completely unscathed. They weigh a few tens of grams each - nothing that is going to slow you down. The sheer amount of mud that was on the bottom of both after an hour's riding attests to how effective they are. They even look pretty good when fitted.If you want mudguards for an off-road bike, these are absolutely excellent - recommended without reservation.

I bought this to replace the poor Zefal rear mudguard I had in place. I have not bothered with the crud catcher for the down tube as I don't reall see much benefit to that. The mudguard is a massive improvement and does a good job of keeping my back clean. I realised I wasn't going to get perfect coverage with 29 inch tyres but this was actually better than I expected and was easy to fit too.I would definitely recommend this product.

So easy to fit, and provide good protection. The front one fixes to the underside of the bar with a couple of rubber straps, the rear is attached to the saddle shaft - it's a two part fitting that clamps around the bar. The pair took 5 mins to fit to my mountain bike, and I have temporarily put the front one onto my cyclocross to do the C2C this weekend.I know the price is fluent, but at just under a tenner, these are unbelievable value for money.

Oh dear! Not great. Just can't seem to make decent mud guards for bikes these days. This is the second time i've tried to get a set for my mountain bike but they have been just plain silly. Rubbish instructions. Although I do have to say I managed to at least get the back one fitted with this set. How to fit the front though is anyone's guess. I'm left with a front mud guard and two rubber rings. ###@@@???? The problem may also be to do with the way they make bikes these days. There is just no place to attach them.

After being splattered with rain and mud this autumn/winter, I have decided to indulge in a pair of mudguards. These didn’t disappoint. On my first trip out in the rain, I was amazed that my cycling trousers stayed dry and I wondered why I had never invested in a pair of these!A slight inconvenience was that it didn’t protect my feet from being splashed but that wasn’t what these were designed to do. Excellent for what it is, liked it that it ‘overprotects’ on my 27” wheels and keeps my bum dry all the way to work. The

Well done crud bought these for my cube attention mountain bike fit well especially the rear keeps me dry during wet rides! The front is a bit fiddly because my tube is not completely round nd my gear wire gets in the way a bit but it fits and does the job keeping my bike clean and me dry, well made solid plastic and comes with three rubber sheaths to fit any saddle tube, cruddy brilliant!

Fitted to an old Stumpjumper with 26" rims. The rear guard is great, and looks fine even on the 26" wheels. I really don't know whether the front guard is worth it - it doesn't prevent mud or spray getting in my face, so I can't really recommend paying extra for this set. 4 stars as the rear guard is great and worth the money. Go for the rear guard only, though, if you can find it.
