SKS Longboard Mudguard Set

Takes a while to get these "just right". A little bit fidly and the stays are quite tough to saw through. A pain if you try to do that with the guards fitted. These are very very long and i had to remove the splash guard off the front guard so it would not impinge on my feet. Good quality but fiddly to fit.

These mudguards provide the best coverage I have seen. I managed to fit them to my roadbike- 25mm tyres- which has no eyelets and a carbon fork. A bit of fettling with some P clips and a cable tie resulted in a good looking and stable set up. To clear the front tyre I had to cut a small rectangular hole in the guard to allow it to be raised up away from the tyre- otherwise the front brake prevented there being sufficient clearance. I smeared superglue around the cut to prevent any splitting later. Finally the stainless stays are very hard to cut- I used a square file and filed a notch in each one which allowed bending and snapping with pliers. Overall, if you are happy to indulge in workarounds I think you could fit these to virtually any bike- certainly steel framed anyway.

I have been looking for a pair of mudguards that will provide the coverage required for solo and also group rides and I found them here! The coverage is amazing keeping water and dirt off my body and also bike frame. It took me a while to fit them and required a slight bending of the front stay to accommodate the disk brakes. I also trimmed the excess from the stays at the front after final adjustments were made. Take your time fitting them and you will not be disappointed.

Good guards. They will protect you from mud and rain spray. The front MG is a bit rattly, but I'm using 700x38c snow spike tyres. No problem fitting, but my Surly has plenty of space and bosses for them.

Great for keeping water/mud off your feet and chain. But not indestructible. They are obviously wider than most mudguards and this where the problem occurred. Using a moderately wide rim with 28 tyres and a sidepull brake caused the front mudguard to split due to continuous compression of the guard when braking. Could have been avoided by cutting away part of the mudguard to stop it being squeezed by the brake but I hadn't anticipated it until the damage was done. Also, why can't the manufacturers put the brackets on the outside of the guard so leaving a smooth internal surface to stop splashing and build up of mud at the brackets?!

These mudguards were ordered for a Boardman hybrid with wheel size of 700x26. These mudguards unfortunately don't fit and will be returned. Shame as the other SKS products I've ordered are fantastic.

Great quality product. Fitting is a bit fiddly to get them just right but worth the time. A junior hacksaw to trim the wire struts is essential. Once fitted they look great and protect feetbackside from getting soaked from water on the road.

Top piece of kit had a set for the last two winters and just about to grab another!coverage is second to none

Materials all high quality. A bit fiddly to fit and translated instructions arent the simplest to follow. Would be nice if a couple of extra stay fittings had been included as its easy to drop them while fitting!

I like these mudguards as they are the only ones I have ridden that keep EVERYTHING off you due to their length and mudflapsI am now buying a second pair for my sons bike
