MTB Mudguard for front suspension

[martint235]

My MTB has been brought out of retirement to be my commuter. It's so far doing really well: it's built like a tank; my speeds are higher than on the SS and it's comfy. The only issue is I got soaked this morning largely from spray from the front wheel so any advice on what is the best mudguard for front suspension (RST forks and V brakes)?

I know from experience I'll never have dry feet so it's just to stop the spray hitting me in the body. I noticed this morning that most the spray was coming up and over the handlebars rather than from under the downtube.

TIA

I've got all kinds of overshoes and sealskinz. Water gets in the top, I get wet feet. Some make it take a little longer but none of the ones I have will last for a commute in heavy rain

You can get neoprene things that fit to the suspension and stop water and dirt being thrown forward and up. Can't remember what they are called but some people swear by them out on the trails.
