This package combination includes the Swan Road (rear) and Croozer Road (front) mudguards, designed for road/hybrid bikes.
Swan Road Rear Mudguard:
The 45mm wide Swan Road features the unique MD-Turn fitting system and is designed to blend aesthetically with the narrower tyres on road bikes and sports hybrids. It is fixed on the seat post and is adjustable for 25 to 32mm diameter.
Croozer Road Front Mudguard:
This mudguard offers elegant mud protection with the convenience of a fast fit, tool-free mounting system. The Croozer Road is narrow at the top to prevent fouling of cables and tapers out to be 20mm wider at the end. It is fixed on the fork and stays, adjustable up to 75mm. The front blade width is from 50 to 70mm.
Both mudguards are made from Technopolymer resin and are suitable for 700c / 28" wheels.
This Zefal Mudguard Set, featuring the Swan Road rear and Croozer Road front mudguards, is designed for cyclists with road or hybrid bikes who want reliable protection from road spray and debris. Its key benefit lies in its effective coverage and secure fitting systems. A potential caveat is that the rear mudguard's clamp size might limit compatibility with some seat post diameters.

FAQs
Are these mudguards suitable for mountain bikes?
These mudguards are specifically designed for road and hybrid bikes with 700c / 28" wheels. They may not provide adequate clearance or coverage for wider mountain bike tires.
What tools are needed for installation?
The Croozer Road front mudguard features a tool-free mounting system. The Swan Road rear mudguard requires a simple tool (often a screwdriver or Allen key, depending on the exact fitting) to tighten the MD-Turn system.
Can I use these mudguards with disc brakes?
The Croozer Road front mudguard is designed to accommodate disc brake setups due to its adjustable width and mounting points on the fork. Compatibility with the rear triangle and seat stays should be checked on a case-by-case basis.
What is the width of the mudguards?
The Swan Road rear mudguard is 45mm wide. The Croozer Road front mudguard tapers and has a blade width ranging from 50mm to 70mm.
How do I clean the mudguards?
Clean with a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads.
What is the MD-Turn fitting system on the rear mudguard?
The MD-Turn system is a unique fitting mechanism for the rear mudguard that allows for secure and adjustable mounting onto the seat post using a simple tightening screw.
Troubleshooting
Rear mudguard slips or moves
Ensure the seat post clamp diameter is within the 25-32mm range. Tighten the MD-Turn fitting screw firmly. Consider using a thin layer of grip tape on the seat post if it's on the smaller end of the compatible range.
Front mudguard rubs against tire or cables
Readjust the mudguard's position on the fork and stays. Use the adjustment feature to change its width (50-70mm) or angle to ensure sufficient clearance.
Mudguard rattles during ride
Check that all mounting screws and fittings are securely tightened. Ensure the mudguard is correctly aligned and not hitting any bike components.
Mudguard doesn't provide adequate coverage
Adjust the angle of the mudguard to cover more of the wheel. For the rear mudguard, ensure it's positioned as close to the tire as possible without touching.
