I thought there may have been a mudguard themed joke in there.futuristicoldman":2me68on7 said:

Do those crud catchers actually work?
Will have to try one.
Think I had mud guards once, seems like a good idea now.
Dont see to many on the "Bike of the month"
Maybe
there should be a full weather bike of the month, e.g. mud guards crud......

I ride on the same tracks as thousands of horse riders and don't want their crap in my eye, a crud catcher prevents this.
If I was entering BOTM i'd strip my frame of all that

Sounds a fine idea, might start a purists uprising and cause the site to explode though.
Seems to me we're split into two distinct camps.
1) Older, more mature. Have mortgage. Can afford car insurance - even for fast cars
2) Kiddie. Live with mum and dad. Can just about insure the Micra if we don't get too many Dominos deliveries.
1) We don't care what 2) think
Really though, a full on MTB really does look soo much better without big plastic mudguards. I'm just too old to put up with a wet bum on the way to work

i've fitted a full set of cruds to the clockwork as it being used as an occasional commuter.
I'm partial to a front crud regardless of weather, the reduced risk of mud / gravel getting kicked up towards my face is a bonus to me and the rear crud, although an ugly bit of kit is a fair compromise for keeping your back dry & warmer.
as for off road - I don't like valeting my car so they are staying on until the ground dries up again in march / april!
