Crud Roadracer mudguards

Roadracer mudguards details

It’s high time someone developed easy-on, easy-off, road guards that are low profile enough to fit a race frame, with zero rattle. Pete ‘Mr Crud’ Tomkins, the brains behind one of the simplest and most successful mountain bike guards of all time, might have just done it.

The superslim, superlight Crud Roadracer has a number of neat and unique features. First off it is slim enough to pass under the fork crown and rear brake bridge rather than just butting up against the fork or brake caliper. This should enable it to perform more like a traditional guard.

Compatible with 23-25c tyres, and we’re told, almost indestructible, for £27.99, the Crud Roadracer should be in the shops right about now.

We’re genuinely excited the Crud Roadracer guard might well be the best looking, lightest and simplest solution to the age-old quandary between a dry backside and a fashion faux pas.
