FAQs
Will this fit a bike with 27.5-inch wheels?
This set is specifically designed for 29-inch wheels and may not provide optimal coverage or fit for smaller wheel sizes.
Can I use these with a carbon seatpost?
Yes, the quick-release clamp is designed to be gentle, but ensure it is not overtightened to prevent damage to carbon components.
Does the front mudguard interfere with cable routing?
The XC1 mounts to the fork lowers; verify that your brake hoses or remote lock-out cables do not snag on the mounting hardware.
Is the material flexible?
The high-impact plastic is designed to be rigid enough to maintain shape but flexible enough to withstand impacts without shattering.
Do I need tools for installation?
No, the quick-release system is designed for tool-free installation and removal.
Troubleshooting
Mudguard rubbing against the tyre
Adjust the quick-release position or the angle of the mounting bracket to increase clearance.
Fender vibrating or shifting during rides
Check that the mounting clamps are tightened correctly and ensure the rubber grip inserts are clean and properly seated.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent coverage for 29-inch mountain bike wheels
- Lightweight construction prevents unnecessary bike weight
- Easy-to-use quick-release mounting system
- Polished underside significantly reduces mud buildup
- Durable, impact-resistant material
Cons
- Front mudguard fit can be limited by specific fork designs
- Not compatible with all road or hybrid bike frames
- Requires periodic adjustment to ensure proper alignment
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the XC1 requires attaching the quick-release clamps securely to your fork lowers. Ensure the mudguard is centered to avoid tyre rub. For the XC11 rear guard, attach the clamp to your seatpost and adjust the angle so the fender sits safely above the rear tyre. Compatibility is limited specifically to 29-inch mountain bikes. To care for your mudguards, simply wipe them down with a damp cloth after rides. While the polished underside resists dirt, a quick spray with a hose is enough to return them to a like-new condition. Periodically check the quick-release bolts to ensure they haven't loosened due to trail vibration.
