Zefal Swan Road Rear Mudguard

These are tiny, way too narrow for a mountain bike, all the mud and muck sprays past them. Even on my hybrid they gave little protection and I got a wet back as the muck got past the rear guard. Waste of money.

Thanks

The front mud guard is fine, but the rear guard is ruined by the locking mechanism which doesn't lock!

This means every time I cycle over a speed bump or pot hole in the road... of which there are plenty in London, the rear guard flops onto my back wheel and has started wearing the rubber down. There are no clear instructions on how to fix this issue or how to adjust the tightness of the mechanism.

Waste of money.

Really good mudguard, easy to install, well constructed and works a treat. I have caught it several times with my foot and caused no damage to it so it is very robust.

Two issues with this. 1) the straps are TIGHT! They are rubber so they stretch and to get it to fit, I have to stretch it to a "it's going to snap at any moment" before it is able to go through and be secured. 2) it's not really wide enough, at it's widest, the product is just less than 3 inches wide. so it does stop some spray from the wheel but I've had spots land on my glasses, up my top etc and I'm not talk about the odd spot either... I'd say it's about 85-90% effective.

Tried this on my hybrid today but not really working for me. Correctly fitted under the seat of my Trek Hybrid. Results are shown in the attached photo.

Very pleased with these guards. They were delivered very quickly, the instructions were fairly easy to follow and to fit. The only reason that I haven't given them a five star rating is that I haven't had a chance to road test them on a wet road yet but overall very pleased. The spec of the bikes that I have fitted them to are:
1. Giant Roam 2, Medium frame, 700cc wheel
2. Whyte Malvern, Medium frame, 700cc wheel
The only small problem that I have encountered is affixing the rear guard on...
