Too much mudguard?

[tIB]

Not enough? It's the wrong colour for this bike but I'm so far not sure about the styling: plastic fantastic?

Sorry, but I actually giggled when I saw that!

Are your tyres not narrow enough to fit some crud road racers? Better coverage and stealthier look. :?:

 

[tIB]

Classy right?! I hadnt seen those road racers- took a punt on the rear as it was cheap... Buy cheap, buy twice!

I'll look into how those road racers fit- they certainly look better!

You will have to do some fettling to get a front Crud road racer to fit, they are designed to be attached to where the road brake attaches to the frame/fork so you would have a big gap on those forks.

Its not good.

Looks like it should be employed in animal husbandry :?

What can I say- I used to really like daffy duck!

Been reading on the newer cruds and can't work out if they screw into the break braces or not. Also looked at the zefal swans- I don't mind the rear- and the orange musguard. I'll probably pick up one of those two for now due to their removability. I have a rear rack coming that will also stop the splash when fitted.

Even I think that is er, not aesthetically pleasing.

Got a zefal swan rear here if you'r interested.

Edit: cheap as chips anyway so might as well get a new one.

Ooh, how much you want for it?
