[Closed] Anthem mud solutions - show me yours

I've never bothered or found it an issue.

I did which ever year was the bad year at Mountain Mayhem on an Anthem, bearings were fine, but the chai stays were actually physically warn away from the amount of mud turning close to the tyre

I refer you to this: http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/anthem-29er-owners-wattle-daub

Maybe I did just find the perfect one off anti Anthem clag / straw combo. Certainly if it'd had been wetter I'd have been better off.

I could, but you wouldn't like it. I gave up riding mine in those conditions for that reason, never could get it to work, and used a singlespeed instead.

Oh. Just when I thought I'd found my perfect bike....

double post

I don't have an anthem but in the past I've bodged a bit of old inner tube and some cable ties together to fashion a makeshift mudguard. Doesn't look pretty but it does the job.

I ride my Soul when it's proper muddy and the Anthem on drier days, problem avoided 😀

You can bodge a mucky nuts fender bender, or at least I could on my 2009 x1 wrong wheel size but I think the linkage is the same

I was thinking that as I have a spare one floating about. Stick it on with the "tail" downwards mounted on the seat stays.

Or this as an alternative http://www.rapidracerproducts.com/EnduroGuard.htm

Which linkages?

Spesh did (still do?) a rear 'shock guard' which mounted to the stays & kept cack away from the shock & upper links.

Alternatively, could you [s]butcher [/s]adapt a neoguard?

You have literally created two parallel threads about your Giant Anthem..? Wow. 🙄
