Hello all
I'm a newbie to these here forums so I hope you can help.
After all this rain we've been having I'm in serious need of saving my eyes from all this mud! (Hate riding glasses)
I did a search but I found nothing regarding the THE shroud mudguard or the rear guard so I'm wondering whether any of you can give some insight into whether they're actually worth using or they just get annoying and in the way?
If it makes any difference I mainly ride fast technical singletrack with some dh thrown in for good measure!
Thanks for any info 🙂

I've been running a THE front mudgaurd for 18 months - its similar to a crudcatcher, but IMHO, looks far nicer

It keeps the mud out of my face too - when run in conjunction with a RRP neoprence fork thingy that is 🙂

I used to sell them at DH races and they were very popular. I loved wet races! I've got a couple in the cellar I don't use any more. Drop me an email if you're interested and I'll look them out and get you details.

Gravity-Slave: Thanks fella, that'd be awesome! Muddy riding is always the most fun but it'll be nice to avoid the face shots :p
My email is rosst230 at gmail.com. Many thanks 🙂

My old Enduro sporting a The mudguard.

Worked well, even if it did look a bit stupid

haha, thanks for the pic! I actually used to have one like that years ago and it was great. However I want something a little smaller and more aesthetically pleasing 😉
Now I've got the tough decision of colour..
