Hello, I have a Mongoose Dolomite ALX bike, the tires are 4” inches wide so I need something about 4.3-4.5” inch mudguard set that will keep me out of mud and water and is affordable, what do you recommend?
It would be good if you rode through some muddy puddles and showed us how muddy you did or did not get. That's proof how they work. They still look too short to me to be effective.
It is all relative to what type of weather your riding in, if you dont want a bit of mud or rain then you need to go right down to the ground almost front and rear, but these work very well for my intended use.
fenders are great. they worked perfect when i was running slicks but when i put on maxxis holy rollers there was not enough clearance with my rock shox fork.. they rubbed
Hi, great video. I wanted to ask if this mudguards would look funny with a 29” x 2.10” wheels? And where can I buy it, because I live in Colombia, Amazon sells these? Reply
I use the full front on the rear with the zip tie and it goes enough back to keep me mostly clean, you will never get everything unless you have a fender that wraps almost to the ground as spray comes up off the knobby tire easy. These do the best job though.
What about the rear protection? As short as the sheets are, the whole back is still full of mud. The protection is about me, not about the bike. It looks very good in the front, but too short in the back, but what I like is the width and the possibility of buying different versions
Yes true, you will always get muddy unless it is right to the bottom of the rear wheel, I do what works for me and it can be better but this works for me. cheers dave
Yeah, coming from road / gravel with proper extended / full coverage guards, there doesn't seem to be anything that offers similar for MTBs. Granted given the terrain the gear's never going to remain pristine, but more coverage would certainly be appreciated!
looks like on the max-front only the rearward facing part is longer compared to the standard front. are the forward facing parts of max and standard the same size?
not a fan of those and of course the only way to eliminate all mud is to have a fender to the ground on the rear or front, but not feasible for real off road riding. but use what you like, cheers
If you don't want to get muddy ... Don't ride 🫤 Imagine wanting Todo mountain biking but complaining about getting dirty, I'm only getting one to keep my linkages and pivot points clean aswell as my yoke.
