Review: Better than the cheap fork mounted ones - I replaced a fork mounted mudguard with this and I'm pleased with the product. The fork mounted one would always get in the way when I had to clean or wipe down the stanchions, and it would also get slightly knocked out of position after a rough ride where it would start making constant contact with the tire. This downtube mudguard is much easier to remove for a quick cleaning and does as good of a job against dust, mud, etc., from what I can tell.
Review: nice cheap mud guard - decently sized for its weight. - Very easy to install, will work on a wide range of bikes due to design. I have a bike with an incredibly thick carbon top tube, and it still fits perfectly. I'm not sure why people think this is too small - a lot of mountain bikes use one MUCH smaller than this. If you want a full front fender, then get a full front fender. This is not a fender, it is a mud guard - different thing. Fenders are meant to completely contain water at the tire, and have practically zero clearance. They have to be very carefully installed if you want to get the best performance. Mud guards like this are basically just a cheap piece of plastic that keeps 80-90% of the spray off you. It's MUCH better than nothing, and it can be taken on and off in a matter of seconds, whereas a real fender requires like 10 minutes and tools.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: SKS Mud-X: What is the total length and width of fender?**
A: Brian H and Ubaldo M say the widest measurement of this fender is 5" and its length is 12".
But the "Product Dimensions: are 7.9 x 2 x 2 inches
Which is the truth?

**Q: Will this work on a Rad Rover fat tire ebike ?**
A: It should work with the Rad Rover, the fender straps on with two adjustable straps that tie down to the forward diagonal frame section, just behind the front tire, so the top strap will likely fit in, though the large power pack (depending on how it matches to the frame) may block the second strap.  However, the accessory screw fittings on the front of the Rad Rover frame would allow you to readily tie the second strap down or let you use a washer on the inside of the fender to screw it directly to the frame.  Having put in a variety of modifications, I don't see this as a problem.

**Q: Will this attach to bottle mounts if you have one under the downtube?**
A: The fender attaches with the two straps as seen in the image.  If you have a bottle mount on the underside of the downtube, potentially you could use such mounts to secure it additionally or as the main way, as there are three reinforced mounting holes that appear to be the standard width of a bottle mount.

**Q: Do the shifter cables (on the bottom of the downtube) go on the inside or on the outside of the four "legs" on the top of this fender?**
A: Mine ran inside on my Trek Marlin, but I have only one cable on the downtube. If both your cables run down the downtube, they might need to be outside on a differently set up bike.

The fork mounted one would always get in the way when I had to clean or wipe down the stanchions, and it would also get slightly knocked out of position after a rough ride where it would start making constant contact with the tire.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for a strap-on fender
*by G***. on January 31, 2017*

Really like this little fender. I bought two for my old steel frame mtb turned commuter bike. These provide good basic "puddle-splash" protection. I have one mounted on the frame's down-tube, and the other to the underside of my bike-carrier rack. Neither required modification. The mounting straps work well and if/when they rot or break I have zip-straps to replace them. The "nubs" on the back of the fender work on my frame without modification and do not hinder any of my cabling, but larger aluminum tubing bikes may have different results. However, even with limited ingenuity, I doubt this would not work on 99% of bikes. So far these fenders have kept mud and water off my front-side and back-side...
