Does anyone have any recommendations for a pair of mudguards?

SKS Blumells or Chromoplastics are pretty cheapo and bombproof.  Needs a spanner to adjust but that's fairly infrequent unless you knock them with the wheel out (can be a PITA  if you accidently put the bike down whilst fixing a puncture on a ride).

The M-part copies have a much better system that can be adjusted quickly, but it's plastic, mine are probably 6 years old now but do have various bits of metal epoxied into them to repair cracked backets.

How big a tyre are you running? I like the Mudhugger Gravel and just run one front & rear, they attach with O-rings and just get popped on in the Autumn. They only clear about a 50mm tyre though I think!

@madeupname the secan arrived on Monday. Loving it so far. Rides really nicely off and on road. Very smooth.

As for mudguards only got a rear so far, an ass savers win wing which works really well. Judging by how much shit hit my chops I need some sort of front fender as well

Buy Ribble ones for a laugh.
