Just finished fitting the mudguards and applying some protective tape in readiness for a first run on the Trek tomorrow morning (fingers crossed)
Frankly, I'm really impressed with the Crud Roadracers mkII – having watched the Crud videos, I thought they'd be a bit more of a faff to fit than they were... a bit fiddly, yes, but not difficult. They're very light weight, don't rub, sit straight and look like they should do a good job keeping my bum and feet dry
Others may well argue differently, but I don't think they detract from the look of the bike too much either. All in, well worth it I reckon
