Hello, I'm seadog, and I have back to front forks.
You know what I mean, those Manitou ones with the brace at the rear.
I cannot find mudguards that are designed for this type of fork. I have fettled and chopped about a MuckyNutz type, but it just doesn't work. Leaves way too little clearance.
Anybody seen the rigid type that can fit?
I don't like the ones that fit to the bottom of the steerer, too ungainly. Just want something to stop a bit of the spray and splatter hitting my face.
How about one of the extended mucky nutz, fitted backwards and carved about a bit...?
Just a thought.
Just fit a Crud guard type to your down tube, far better than any those silly minimalist ones that are all ugly looks and no function...

This has cutouts for both back and front fork braces, you're welcome 😉
Edit, even cheaper in orange http://www.decathlon.co.uk/flash-mtb-front-mudguard-ora-id_8327794.html
Mucky Nutz do now do one for reverse arch forks - [url= http://www.muckynutz.com/mudguards/face_fender_r/face_fender_r_black ]here[/url].
Before they did them, I bought an extended one and fitted it backwards
Yup mucky nutz do a specific reverse arch fork one and the decathlon ones have slots cut for normal and reverse ones
Used both, and they both work well
Decathlon ones are ridiculously good value and have chunky reusable zip ties
If only I had looked proper like...
