I've got Crud Roadracer Mk2 which I've fitted and removed from my Defy several times. They keep me dry and don't rattle so I'm pleased with them. Well, the front one rattles a bit on really rough roads sometimes. A bit fiddly to fit 1st time round but once they were on there, I had no problems.
I find the large down tube takes care of the front wheel so just use an ass saver or an MTB crud guard that clips to the seat post for the rear as and when I need them .
Just be aware that if anyone is planning on purchasing the Giant Defy mudguards they may not fit if you have changed your brake calipers. I changed my calipers to a pair of Shimano Ultegra ones and I found out the hard way that the Giant mudguards won't fit.
Unfortunately I can't return these these for a refund because the Dremel came out whilst I was frustratingly having a 'these will fit' moment. Got the bikeshop to fit some SKS Raceblades in the end and these work well.
