Try fashioning some tyre skimmers out of coathanger wire, have it drag on the tyre, it's an old trick ,used to discourage picking up flints and thorns in the tyres, might work?Remove the wheels, clean the mudguards like new and spray on some wax furniture polish to the underside. See if mud sticks.
Does that work?Try fashioning some tyre skimmers out of coathanger wire, have it drag on the tyre, it's an old trick ,used to discourage picking up flints and thorns in the tyres, might work?
You will have to ingenious on where you mount them , but behind the BB my best bet,or some form of scraper.
The Carleton tyre saver you talk of came in two models; one that attached to the brake mount bolts and another with springs that clipped anywhere on the mudguards. for me, the latter were better as they were easy to put on and off.tyre savers back in the day
Or one with better tyre / mudguard clearance - ?Surely the obvious solution is that it is time for a new bike?
Which is great.... unless you live in a second floor flat with no outside tap . And no, I'm not putting a bike in the shower....A hose is literally 20 second job for both guards.
Dunno , let's find out.....Does that work?
Isn’t this just another thing to get clogged up and risk getting tangled into the mechanism.
A brush down before you go in ? Pump powered sprayer ?Which is great.... unless you live in a second floor flat with no outside tap . And no, I'm not putting a bike in the shower....
