Rock Guardz Carbon
Relatively new on the market is the Rock Guardz Carbon mudguard (featured on sister site Dirt earlier this year – read here). It’s entirely manufactured from carbon fibre so looks pretty bling on the bike, plus it’s light and extremely tough. It fixes to the fork in a similar fashion to the Bender Fender, using zip ties instead of Velcro. Once in place it’s very secure and although clearance is limited between the tyre, there’s enough space for mud and stones to pass through. The best thing about the medium version (three lengths are available) is because it wraps so much of the front wheel it keeps 99% of the mud from hitting your face. It’s more expensive than most of the other mudguards here, but does offer far more protection from mud. If you’re riding several times a week it’ll soon pay for itself.
£45.500 (medium)
