Wet-weather commuters
Arrive at work without a muddy stripe up your back.
Mudguards stop wheel spray from soaking your back and clogging your bike. The right pair fits your wheel size and clears your tyres, and most take minutes to fit.
The main mudguard options, plus a rain layer for wet days.
Mudguard kits that cover both wheels for full protection.
Clip-on front mudguard options for quick fitting.
Mudguard options with stays for steadier, fuller cover.
Mudguards sized for kids' bikes from 16 to 26 inches.
Rain jackets and ponchos for wet ride days.
Mountain bike mudguard options in 24 to 29 inch sizes.
Mudguards are made for set wheel sizes, such as 16, 20, 24, 26, 27.5 or 29 inches. Check the size printed on your tyre sidewall first. A guard that matches your wheel sits closer and catches more spray.
Wide tyres need wider guards, and some frames leave very little room. Make sure the mudguard clears the tyre with a gap so it does not rub. Leave space for mud to pass, especially off-road.
Clip-on and strap-on guards fit in minutes and come off just as fast. Guards with stays bolt on for a steadier, longer-term setup. Check your frame for mounting points before choosing bolt-on guards.
A front guard keeps spray off your face and feet. A rear guard stops the stripe of mud up your back. For daily riding in the wet, front and rear together give the best protection.

Start with your wheel size, which is printed on the tyre sidewall, such as 26 x 2.1 or 700 x 35. Choose a mudguard made for that size, then check it is wide enough for your tyre. Each product page lists the wheel sizes it suits.
Not always. A front guard keeps spray off your face, chest and feet, while a rear guard stops the mud stripe up your back. If you ride daily in wet weather, fitting both gives the best protection.
Yes, many front mountain bike mudguards fit to the fork or down tube and move with the suspension. Check the product details for the wheel sizes and fittings it suits. Leave enough clearance so the guard does not touch the tyre when the fork compresses.
Most clip-on and strap-on mudguards fit in a few minutes without tools. Guards with stays take a little longer and need mounting points on your frame. Follow the instructions, then spin the wheels to check nothing rubs.
Yes, they cut down the grit and water thrown onto your chain, gears and frame. That means less cleaning and less wear over time. You will still want to rinse your bike after very muddy rides.
Choose mudguards that suit your wheels and your riding, and enjoy wet days a little more.
